Art festival Pyhä Sana

The art festival PYHÄ SANA, held on 11–12 September 2026, celebrates language in its many forms, bringing together singer-songwriters, masters of the joik tradition, authors, poets, and other word artists – along with their audiences – for a unique encounter.

The outdoor stages of Aittakuru and Tajukangas, nestled by Pyhätunturi, provide an unforgettable setting for the performances as autumn colors slowly take over the landscape. The atmosphere also extends indoors, with words and performances heard at Restaurant Mesta and CAMP Kitchen & Bar. The programme will be gradually announced throughout spring and summer, and artists can also apply via an open call.
First announced performers:

Ánnámáret
Asa
keiju
Pelkkä Poutanen
Sirpa Kähkönen
Pekka Juntti
Harri Hertell

Two-day tickets will be released in four batches. Each batch has a limited number of tickets, and prices will increase as each batch sells out. The festival programme begins on Friday, 11 September 2026, in the early afternoon – so make sure to arrive early. The full schedule will be published in summer.
