– Tuska at Suvilahti, Helsinki, 26–28 June 2026

Tuska Festival, taking place at Suvilahti in Helsinki on the last weekend of June, has announced a batch of new artists to the already diverse lineup for next summer.

For Tuska Friday, spearheaded by the mighty Megadeth, the confirmed additions include Swedish industrial metal veteran Pain, Danish hard rock legends D-A-D; Arizona-based stadium death metal outfit Gatecreeper and the American reggaecore collective aurorawave.

To Saturday, headlined by Bad Omens, the festival adds the fresh Finnish power rock trio HOKKA, the American theatrical emo-rock band The Funeral Portrait, Finland’s own atmospheric doom-metallers Swallow The Sun, melodic death metal act Survivors Zero and electric bowed lyre wielding folk -group Kallomäki.

The final day, crowned by Bring Me The Horizon, introduces new names including Finnish alternative rock and metal pioneer Sara, the Finnish–Karelian mythology inspired Nordic folk duo Kajos, hardcore punkers Rukous and Necrotic Ooze, who dig deep with low-tuned death metal in the spirit of the early ’90s.
