Jazz Finland Live

Elephantasy – Funky Family Picnic is a multicultural summer event for the whole family in the beautiful park of Alppipuisto, this year on Saturday 1 July. The programme includes music, children’s activities, circus, world street food and joyful time for the whole family. Bring your own treats or buy your delicacies from the vendors!

There’s also a fresh addition to the event programme. While the Ghanaian reggae artist Blakk Rasta could not get his visa in order and had to cancel his show, we will bring Negus Rocketeers Showcase live on stage of Elephantasy along with eight local reggae singers together with a band consisting of top-notch musicians! Negus Rocketeers have earned their reputation by playing as the live band for several international reggae superstars, such as Mikey General, Marla Brown, Peetah Morgan and Luciano, when they have visited Finland.
