Tuska 2010, Helsinki Finland (july 02-04)

Tuska Open Air, a unique festival with 3 stages at kaisaniemi park in the centre of Helsinki. Personally the best line-up from this festival season, maybe even one of the best line-ups I have ever seen. And what will be the odds, it will be a very sunny and hot festival again? After 4 visits it is still a 100% score.

Every night, after the open-air shows, there will be Tuska Club shows in different venues. Check out the Tuska website around june for the latest information about the club shows.
