  1. Kaustinen Folk Music Festival

    The Kaustinen Folk Music Festival is one of the most beloved of summer festivals in Finland, attracting huge crowds. It's the place to be if you're interested in Finnish folk music and dance, since some 300 Finnish bands (and many international acts) perform more than 250 concerts during the week in mid-July. At any time between 10:00 and 03:00 there are several official concerts and half a dozen impromptu jam sessions going on.

    Folk dance performances are also an integral part of the festival, with everything from Celtic and Latin dancing alongside Finnish dance.
