Flow Festival has unveiled the first artists for its 2026 edition, returning to Helsinki’s Suvilahti Power Plant from 14th–16th August, 2026. Known for its avant-garde programming and genre-blending lineups, Flow promises another boundary-pushing celebration of music and culture in the heart of Finland’s capital.

Topping the bill is the return of Florence + The Machine, joined by Sweden’s pop powerhouse Zara Larsson, UK alt-pop sensation PinkPantheress, and the long-awaited reunion of legendary rap duo Clipse. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds also return to the live circuit with material from Wild God, alongside hardcore icons Turnstile, house trailblazer Honey Dijon, and Irish techno favourite KETTAMA.

Additional international names include genre-defying producer Oklou, the Italo-funk-infused Nu Genea Live Band, poetic Gen-Z artist Sombr, and riotous punk act Lambrini Girls. The announcement also shines a spotlight on emerging Finnish acts such as Vesta, Pearly Drops, Olga, and Arppa 8-pack, underlining Flow’s commitment to elevating diverse and forward-thinking talent.

Held across a striking industrial site just minutes from downtown Helsinki, Flow Festival offers more than just music — it’s a cultural experience. From immersive art installations and sustainability-focused design to cutting-edge food, fashion and wellness offerings, Flow continues to redefine what a European city festival can be. Tickets are on sale now, starting from €159 for single-day access and €259 for full weekend entry.
