Live music and live beer. In collaboration: Lutakon Lippa & HIISI.BEER/FEST
More details about the attending breweries, tickets and accomodation can be found below. Book your tickets ASAP though, as this festival is a small and special one. 👍
The beer festival ticket includes entrance between 14.00-20.00 on the day(s) mentioned in the ticket. The beer festival ticket also includes the official beer festival glass (1 per ticket). If you buy a multi-day ticket, please hold on to your glass and bring it with you on each day. Forgotten, lost or broken glasses cannot be replaced so a new one will have to be purchased separately (6€). More info in the FAQ-section.
Tickets for the gigs of each artist include entrance to the beer festival (between 14.00-20.00, only for that particular day). This means you can buy a ticket for each artist you like, ensuring access to those days of the beer festival as well! Simple isn’t it? However, please note that the ticket for the gig does not include the beer festival glass needed for tasting (6€, available separately at the venue). More info in the FAQ-section.

BREWERIES, BEErs & Schedule
Both weeks will have a different set of guest breweries (25.08.-26.08. & 01.09.-02.09.).
The beer selection will change not only weekly, but daily according to the schedule below. Different days, different beers and even a switch in the middle of the day. We will curate the selection together with the participating breweries, so you know it’ll be good! 🍻
First set of beers available daily between 14.00-17.00 (beer list can be found here)
Second set of beers available daily between 17.00-20.00 (beer list can be found here)
Brewery booths close daily at 20.00 to the tune of Harjun iltasoitto.
After the brewery booths close, festival beers may still be found from the common bars during the gigs starting 20.00->
ARRIVAL, ACCOMODATION & WEATHER. + FOOD!
Our location is fantastic, as you can get to the festival via public transport from all over Finland. Get your tickets from Matkahuolto, Onnibus or VR. All the aforementioned come and go from about 800 meters of walking distance. If you wish, there are options of getting in and out of town during the same day.
Accommodation is readily available from about 50 meters of distance. Check hotels, hostels etc from which ever platform you prefer. Examples include Sokos Hotel Paviljonki, Green Star, Verso and Time Hostel. We do, however, recommend booking early.
Weather. The everlasting riddle of Finnish nature. Don’t stress about it! During the day you’ll find seats both indoors and outdoors, and while the brewery booths are located indoors you can also grab your drink and enjoy it outside. During the gigs, festival beers continue being poured outside near the gigs. So you’ll be fine, trust us. 🍻
Gigs are plenty during these two weeks, even on days of no beer festival. And rest assured, the beer on each gig is plenty better than average! Even new releases! Below you’ll find all the gigs during the two weeks, where the beer festival days are marked nicely with a bottle. So take your pick!
