Flow Festival’s daily program has been published and all the ticket types are on sale. Furthermore, new additions to the festival line-up have been announced. The 2025 edition of Flow Festival will mark the eagerly awaited performance of the avant-pop artist FKA twigs, whose recent album Eusexua has garnered universal acclaim with Pitchfork calling it a “masterful pop-star moment”, the unique rap wonder Little Simz, who has become one of the most famous rappers in Britain, collaborating with the likes of Coldplay, the iconic French electro pop duo Air, who will play their classic Moon Safari album, and the groundbreaking electronic music act Underworld, known especially for their iconic hit Born Slippy that encapsulated the 1990s zeitgeist in Danny Boyle’s classic film Trainspotting.
Suvilahti will also witness the innovative Swedish duo Yung Lean & Bladee, who have redefined the possibilities of both modern hip-hop and alternative music, the British Lola Young, who has been described as a voice of her generation and whose single Don’t Hate Me went viral on TikTok in 2023, with US celebrities such as Kylie Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Madonna releasing lip-sync videos using the song, and the performance of the Ghanaian-American singer, songwriter, and producer Amaarae, who is known for her personal and groovy soprano. Additionally, Sam Quealy, the Paris-based artist, who has been named as the techno pop princess with her musical hybrid of pop, techno, hyper pop, dance and rap, and the electric music group Snow Strippers, recently named as the hottest new band in New York, will also join the line-up, will take the stage at Flow.
Flow’s domestic announcements include several Finnish top artists. Joining the line-up will be Finland's Spotify number one Turisti, the irresistibly energetic rapper Ege Zulu, the pioneering Finnish electronic pop group Ruusut, who will perform exclusively this summer at Flow, and the intimate pop singer Mirella, who received this year six Emma-awards at the Finnish music industry gala.
