The first-ever event will take place from 1-2 August 2025 in Meripuisto, Helsinki and will be curated by Pipsa Hurmerinta.
À la Park is an event that feeds all the senses, bringing music, food and drink together for the first time in Finland in the form of a festival. On the first weekend in August, Meripuisto will host a carefully planned music programme and the most interesting and topical restaurants.
À la Park will feature Swedish star José González, Finnish pop favourites BEHM, Ellinoora and Samuli Putro, and the supergroup Rodeo, formed by Anna Puu, Erin and Ida Paul.
Festival-goers' taste buds will be tantalised by the likes of Maukku, one of this year's most lauded restaurant openings, SicaPelle in Porvoo, a perennial favourite, Rolling Cheese, which has just opened its second cheese shop-wine bar, and Seksico, which will convince with authenticity and big flavours, and the first names of the restaurant line-up are now available. In addition to a wide range of food, the event will offer an interesting and high quality selection of wines, cocktails and beers.
The event is organised by Fullsteam Agency, the company behind Sideways and Provinssi festivals, among others, and the restaurant coverage is curated by chef, caterer and media personality Pipsa Hurmerinta.
