Mara Balls and Satanen – Malmi Summer of Events 2026

Now is the time to rock! The up-and-coming band Satanen will blast through their set with enough energy to singe your hair. The second act to take to the stage will be Mara Balls, a force of nature in rock.

The day’s programme

17.30–18.20
Satanen

The up-and-coming rock and roll band Satanen will blast through their set of distinctive and sincere music with enough speed and energy to singe your hair. The quartet’s joy of playing will wake up the audience like a cast-iron alarm clock. Satanen are a like an avalanche of potatoes, a killer of woes and a slingshot that shoots cannonballs – something you did not know you needed.
Place: Container stage, Ala-Malmi Square

19.00–20.00
Mara Balls

The permeating guitar tones of Mara Balls will impale even the most hardened rock purist and wake up princesses and princes from their beauty sleep. The powerful expression of the rock trio will force you to be present with every cell of your body: a Mara Balls live show is a portal with no return. Bring some courage and a hunger for adventure – that is all that is needed.
In the words of Soundi magazine’s Antti Luukkanen: “Maria Mattila and her alter ego Mara Balls know how to command a stage, knowing what playing rock is all about – and that the music should also have something to say.”
Place: Container stage, Ala-Malmi Square
