URB is the city’s voice, reflecting its pulse and diversity for the 26th time. URB 25 invites you to experience performances dealing with the artist’s roots and expand into broader interpretations of the current satate of world. During the festival, urban culture will take over Kiasma, Stoa, and the urban forest in Eastern Helsinki. The event culminates in a free URB Stage open air concert at Kansalaistori!
