Oulu Music Video Festival

21.8. – 24.8.2025
Oulu Music Video Festival is a four-day event of music and moving pictures that brings together young and youthful people, both music and film professionals, enthusiasts and consumers on the last warm evenings of the summer.

The 32nd Oulu Music Video Festival will take place on 21–24 August 2025 under the theme of Hyper Realities. In 2025, the festival will introduce a new international competition category for Nordic creators. The OMVF Nordic Music Video Competition is part of the Oulu 2026 European Capital of Culture programme and will expand into a Europe-wide competition in 2026.

The Festival presents hundreds of music videos, movies, documentaries and special screenings. In addition, the authors of the videos express their own views from different perspectives in some of the screenings. The best Finnish music videos and video makers are rewarded at the prestigious Pumpeli Gala.

The festival organizes also live clubs and other music video related activities in local bars.

The artistic director of the festival is Joel Karppanen. The event is produced by the Oulu Music Video Festivals Association.
