kolme hymyilevää naista, kahdella kädessä viulu ja yhdellä sellokotelo

At the end of the festival, we return to where it all began: Oulunsalo. In summer 2027, Oulunsalo Soi will celebrate its 30th anniversary, and this summer’s finale marks the starting point for planning the anniversary year. In a relaxed closing event, we will wrap up the week-long presentation of European countries, check that our festival passports have all the necessary stamps, and begin the countdown to next summer accompanied by familiar melodies.
