The summer festival season in Lapland began in Rovaniemi with the Santa Open Air event at Sairaalan Niemi. The festivals attract adult audiences with nostalgia-driven music, featuring artists like Dingo, Mamba, and Suurlähettiläät who performed hits from the late 20th century. Eventworks, which organizes three major Lapland festivals, noted that these nostalgic songs resonate well with their adult audience, unlike more modern acts such as Aresta. Eventworks has collaborated with Rauhala Events Oy for artist bookings, allowing certain performers to appear at multiple festivals on the same day. While some Finnish festivals have reduced ticket prices to make them accessible to younger people, Lapland festivals maintain affordable pricing, with two-day passes costing up to 150 euros. The largest Lapland festival, Simerock in August, is age-unrestricted but remains the most popular among adults.
