Kannusali has released its lively cultural programme for spring
In the heart of Espoo, there is a hidden underground gem. Kannusali offers people of all ages the opportunity to immerse themselves in a variety of cultural experiences. Kannusali brings together high-quality live music, performing arts, and a sense of community. Come and catch the underground vibes!
During spring, Kannusali will host energetic concerts and touching performances that transcend genres. Highlights in the lineup include Knipi Trio, Don Johnson Big Band, and Edu Kettunen. In April, the stage will be graced by Mikael Rickfors, acclaimed as the best soul singer in his home country of Sweden and also known for his time in The Hollies.
Indie music enthusiasts can look forward to performances by Joni Ekman Group, Krypta, Ursus Factory, Knife Girl, The Holy, as well as Räjäyttäjät and Kristiina, showcasing their fresh alternative music at Kannusali. The stage will also feature young talents like Rosa Costen, Sonia, Arttu Lindeman, Heviteemu and the highly popular Jambo & band.
For fans of metal music, Kannusali promises performances by Annala and Saikkonen from Mokoma in January. The underground will shake during the 6 Feet Underground mini-festival held during the ski holiday week, featuring both newcomers and veterans in heavier music, such as Brymir, Metsatöll, and Saruru. On April 10th, Kasarin Lapset live podcast will delve into the history of Children of Bodom.
In addition to music, Kannusali's stage will showcase entertaining performances and gems of performing arts, including the award-winning choreographer Sonya Lindfors' dance piece "Something like this," and stand-up shows by Fathi Ahmed and Mebe. Helsinki Poetry Connection and Matriarkaatti invite the audience to participate in their Open Mic evenings at Café Bar Luola.
The program also includes affordable film experiences for various tastes, both in daytime showings and, by popular demand, screenings starting at 6 p.m. The family-friendly program at Kannusali will be diverse during the spring. At the end of January, the first "Lasten luolalauantai" (Kids's Cave Club) will take place with the hugely popular Skidit disko.
Exciting additions to the program are still to come. See you underground!
