Let’s kick off the academic year together with the Kortepohja Festival! Kortepohja Festival is all about the community and locality – it is Kortepohja’s own yard party for the whole family, organized now for the third time. This year, there will be live music, street food, yard games, a bouncy castle, glitter and other fun activities. The venue is none other than the Rentukka square – the Heart of a living Village!

Program:

19.00 – 22.00 Live music; Leppäne & valliteva tilanne, Slash the Smile and Muuan mies Band

The event will be organized if the weather allows. The event will be organized as an outdoor event following the restrictions of the Regional State Administrative Agency and taking care of the safety precautions.
