Something bold is emerging in the Nordics as ODDfest builds the next generation of creative festivals right in the heart of Helsinki.

Dubbed the festival of cultural relevance and creative growth, ODDfest is a fresh take on an industry event that is designed to inspire, teach, showcase, accelerate, and unite across disciplines, communities, and country lines.

Moving people and moving minds, ODDfest is more than just a line of stages; it’s where art, business, and society stop pulling apart and start making progress together to make the creative economy the next big engine of growth.

Created to be a meeting point for the entirety of the creative ecosystem, ODDfest welcomes all who wish to shape the future of culture and creativity, from emerging talents, pro artists, and cultural leaders to entrepreneurs, brands, and institutions—not forgetting the passionate and culture-curious public looking to experience something new.

Building from its bold debut in 2025, ODDfest is returning in 2026 braver, louder, and larger in scale.
