Description:

Flow Festival, the truly urban boutique city festival has been organised in Helsinki annually since 2004. In 15 years, Flow Festival has grown from a small club event to the trailblazing European music and arts festival it is today. While the scale and breadth of Flow has changed throughout the years — more artists, more people, more everything — the founders’ original vision still stands every year: to create a festival they genuinely want to attend themselves.

Flow Festival is a carefully curated, high-quality festival with an innovative and content driven program that is an inspired mixture of popular culture and experimental arts. With broad music and arts program, hand-picked food and restaurant services, thoughtfully designed and decorated festival area and extensive sustainability program Flow has put a new benchmark on the European festival scene.

Flow Festival is one of the world’s first carbon-neutral festivals. Flow’s whole carbon footprint is calculated every year and the festival’s environmental impact is minimized via contributions to environmental projects. Also, carbon-neutral Flow seeks to minimize emissions through comprehensive environmental work.
