HSL to partner Flow Festival in August 2015

HSL decided to partner Flow Festival because the event organizers are making special efforts in eco-friendliness. There are extensive public transport links to the festival venue in Suvilahti and the area can also be conveniently reached by bicycle.

HSL will provide additional transport services to the event. As an environmental partner of the event, HSL is this year making efforts in promoting cycling. Festival goers can leave their bikes at HSL bike parking. The bike parking is located close to the festival venue at a parking site between Parrukuja and Parrukatu.    

The festival is expected to attract some 60,000 visitors. Thanks to the Rail Rail Line opened to traffic on 1 July, visitors from around Finland and abroad can take a train from Helsinki airport to Helsinki.

Flow Festival will take place in Suvilahti, Helsinki 14 - 16 August. The festival features not only a wide range of music but also visual arts and food. This year, the artist include Beck (US), Major Lazer (US), Pet Shop Boys (UK), Róisín Murphy (IE), Belle and Sebastian (UK), Future Islands (US), Todd Terje & The Olsens (NO), Florence + The Machine (UK), Alt-J (UK), Flying Lotus (US), Tyler The Creator (US), and many others.
