The history of Tuska began in 1998 and it has grown larger every year. The location of the festival has been in Kaisaniemi park in the middle of Helsinki, Finland from 2001. However, since Tuska 2011 has been at its new home, Suvilahti event field in Sörnäinen, Helsinki.

In recent years the attendance has grown and the festival has drawn in around 30.000 people.

Tuska and near-by shopping center Redi announces their cooperation for 2019.

This leads to a number of positive changes:

The main festival gate / entrance will be moved to next to the shopping center and metro station. Getting to the festival can’t get any easier, just get on the metro and hop off at Kalasatama station!

The entrance to the events at Suvilahti event field is usually located in south part of the area. For summer 2019 Tuska will flip the blueprint around. The route to Tuska will start from Redi and Kalasatama metro station, making the arrival to the festival grounds way more convenient and easier. The shopping center will be the site for several Tuska-related services: wristband exchange, event info, ticket sales point, art gallery, Tuska-store, bike- and carpark to name a few.

The new agelimit for the festival will be 18. This means that the entire festival grounds will be a bar area for the first time in the history of the festival.

Artists and show days for confirmed Tuska 2019 acts:

Fri 28.6.
Amorphis, Dimmu Borgir, Anthrax, Battle Beast, Cult Of Luna, Marko Hietala, Anneke Van Giersbergen, Power Trip, Brymir, Alien Weaponry, Goatburner
