7.8.2025

The Great Nocturnal Happening is once again taking over Tampere with its diverse selection of events, performances and activities!
You can visit Milavida, where there is much to learn and experience within the world of opera. You can release your inner artists by joining the painting workshop at Arteljee, or try out various handicraft workshops in Verkaranta, put together by Taito Pirkanmaa.
The Nocturnal Happening includes a variety of different art exhibitions around the city centre. Check out Keskus Galleria, Werstas or Nootti museum.
Of course, there are also plenty of performances to choose from in the programme. Various dance groups take over the Ratina shopping centre, while you can find different circus acts or a Eurovision themed drag show in Pyynikintori.
