A beloved Helsinki  tradition, the Night of the Arts will be celebrated on Thursday, 20 August 2026. There will once again be hundreds of events of all kinds held in a variety of venues, from clubs to the streets and from parks to boutiques. The open call for events begins in April 2026. During the Night of the Arts, many museums offer free admission, and galleries and museums extend their opening hours.

The event is part of the Helsinki Festival.

Spreading all over Helsinki and the capital region, the Night of the Arts programme is put together with the help and input of residents. Every art project, large or small, is warmly welcome to the Night of the Arts. Registration for the Night of the Arts program begins in spring 2026.
