The programme of the arts and music festival Nummela Art Night includes an astonishing range of alternative music highlights.

Nummela Art Night brings light and colour to the autumn once again on 7 October 2023! This year, the festival programme includes, among others, bestselling, multi-award-winning alt-rapper and poet Paperi T, who just recently released his latest album, and indie rocker Arppa, whose music is inspired by jazz and fusion. Festivalgoers will also get to see Lauri Haav, Isaac Sene, moshimoshi, Knife Girl, Mura, Michael Bleu, Suhina Kollektiivi, Irene Kostas, and Antti Kneckt take the stage.

Organized for the third time this year, the interdisciplinary festival takes place in and around Aura Light Certos Areena in the Pajuniitty district of Nummela. This edition of the festival is even more colourful and versatile than in previous years, and substantial investments have been made to the visual appearance and magical atmosphere of the festival area.

Nummela Art Night began as the Palma Art Night street art festival in 2021, and it offers music, murals, extensive artworks, and installations including impressive and affecting pieces from top artists in Finland.

Aura Light Certos arena is transformed for the duration of the festival into a magical world filled with video and photographic art, with a soundscape created by Suhina Kollektiivi from Tampere that specializes in live and improvised works of sound art. Festivalgoers can experience the soundscape through their personal smart devices.

Local artist Salla Ikonen, whose murals and other works can be seen throughout Finland, is the arts curator and producer for the festival area. The colourful graphic elements of the festival were designed by graphic artist, illustrator, and designer Ossi Pirkonen, who took part in Palma Art Night in 2021.

Tickets are on sale through Tiketti at 25 euros per ticket. A children's' ticket is offered to those under the age of 7 at a price of 5 euros. There is a designated area where alcoholic beverages are served, but the festival is otherwise open to all ages.

Transportation to and from the event will be organised from Helsinki and the old church village of Vihti. More detailed information about the transport will be available through the social media channels of Nummela Art Night and the website of event as it approaches.
