An experience of music and art in a high plain environment where the sun never sets. Solstice Festival is a gathering for people who enjoy music, art and nature. It takes place during midsummer (18.-20.6.) in northern Finland next to the Arctic Circle. The festival site, Rukatunturi, is a fell which rises half a kilometer above sea level, giving people picturesque views over pine trees and lakes. That time of the year combined with the northern location means the sun doesn’t set at all, creating a unique atmosphere — a celebration of light and life.
