Hop on in; we’ve got updates nicely lined up for you.

The schedules for ODDfest, ODDference, and Creative Week are live.

Before you step onto the event grounds, take a moment to map out your week, mark your favourites, and figure out where you need to be and when.

Please note that some official ODDfest and Creative Week programming requires preregistration. Below you'll find links to all schedules, as well as direct links to the information and sign-up pages for events that require advance registration.

A more detailed listing of all official ODDfest Creative Week events can be found at the end of this newsletter. Creative Week events are free of charge. ODDfest and ODDference programming require a ticket.

Wondering where to exchange your ticket for a wristband? Looking for the right entrance? Need practical information before arriving?

You'll find all of this and more in the FAQ section on the ODDfest website.

Have a look before your visit and save yourself a few unnecessary adventures.

The event week is around the corner, and if your festival crew is still undecided, now's the time to get everyone on board.

As a thank you for being part of the journey and to ease your ODDfest finalizations, we’re offering a special perk to our precious community:

We're proud to partner with Nescafé during our event week, 11–13 June.

Nescafé is one of the world's most recognisable coffee brands—built on the idea that great coffee should be easy to enjoy, wherever you are. Their Ready To Drink iced coffee brings that same thinking to the can: no brewing, no waiting, just good coffee on the go.

At ODDfest, Nescafé will be at Mauno Koivisto Square with their signature Hero setup and UTV vehicle, handing out iced coffee samples to everyone passing through—Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

All are welcome. No ticket needed.

As 2026 moves forward, things are starting to pick up speed. A lot is on the horizon: new events, community activities, and insider perks, both online and offline.

Now’s the perfect moment to hop in before things go full steam.

To keep the spark going and our dear local community alive and thriving, ODDfest organizes side-events year-round.
