Get to know Delta Life airres

The Delta Life airres of Oulu August Festivals will pop up during the hugely popular Lumo Light Festival in Oulu over the weekend. You can spot the mysterious creature both on the Renkkusilta Bridge and elsewhere in the delta.

Delta Life is an international project leading up Oulu 2026, European Capital of Culture. It culminates in a spectacular event throughout August 2026 in the delta.

Inspired by the muses of legends, Delta Life showcases the muses who once showed humans the birth of iron and were present when the text message was invented. Whether it's science, art, or any other human endeavor, the activities of innovative individuals require the presence of muses. The muses favor both spirit and practice and are particularly excited about the creation of something new. In Oulu, the muses are best known for Ilmatar, who has excelled not only in world creation but also as the protector of air guitar playing.

Renkkusilta, on the other hand, is the first precursor to the arena of the 2026 spectacle, with the scent of tar and tradition combined with modern life. You can follow the development of Delta Life on our social media channels: Oulu Festival Week and Northern Cultural Stream.
