What to expect

  • Headlined by Calvin Harris in 2026
  • Held in the open-air Mežaparks Great Bandstand in Riga
  • A one-day edition for 2026 as a special exception

Planning tips

  • Riga is ~4 hours from Tallinn by bus — go the night before
  • Confirm it's the one-day 2026 format before planning your travel

Build a day around it

Tallinn event days feel best when they stay simple: one event block, one food anchor, and one walk — with buffer so nothing feels rushed.

  • If you have 2–3 hours: arrive early → event → short Old Town / viewpoint loop.
  • If you're making a full day: one museum/neighborhood block + event + a calm evening plan.
  • If the weather turns: keep walking minimal and use cafes/museums as your buffer.

Before you go

  • Confirm the details: check the official link for last-minute schedule or venue updates.
  • Arrive with buffer: 15-30 minutes early usually makes the whole experience calmer.
  • Have a weather plan: keep one indoor warm stop in mind in case the day turns.
