The Oulunkylä sports park will organize 4.-5. July Spark Festival.
The stage features JVG, Earth, Wind & Fire Experience, Isac Elliot, Abreu, By Robin PackalenMirella, Kaija Koo, Dire Straits Legacy and Jenni Vartianen.
The organizers are the football club IF Gnistan and United Festivals, which organized the Down by the Laituri festival.
Gnistan’s home stadium, located in IF Gnistan’s sports park, was destroyed by fire last summer.
– Kipinä Festival is a wonderful opportunity for us and an important step in the reconstruction after the disaster in July and in the development of the Oulunkylä sports park, says the CEO of IF Gnistan Ilkka Vanala in the bulletin.
At the festival, a single wristband is available for those who wish.
– With the voluntary wristband, every single person can easily recognize another single person and it is easier to get to know new people. We have received hints from our audience that this would be good to implement, and now we decided to try it at Kipinä Festival, says i Henri Kulmala from United Festivals Oy.
The festival is aimed at adults.
