Flow Festival Perhesunnuntai / Family Sunday 2026

Flow Festival’s familiar Family Sunday is a festival day when families can bring their children along to enjoy the festival atmosphere. Family Sunday on 16 August 2026 offers plenty of fun and a varied programme for younger festival-goers.

PROGRAMME

2:00–2:30 PM Family Flow Dance | Heineken Backyard

Drawing Workshop
Children can draw the festival crowd on paper using colourful crayons. The Alvar Aalto Foundation welcomes both children and adults interested in drawing to take part in observational drawing workshops.

Kurkkumopo
Careful with the Kurkkumopo! At Museo Leikki’s activity point, children can earn a Kurkkumopo driving licence either by riding or walking alongside the vehicle. At the same spot, they can also customise their own version of a Finnish sandbox classic: a proper Neppis toy car.

Glitternisti
The Glitternisti station offers glitter and face gems, giving festival-goers a chance to create their own sparkling festival look.

Street Art Station
At Nordea’s street art station, younger festival-goers can draw their dreams on the ground with pavement chalk. The fluffy Jalmari mascot will also be there. Children can also have their own dream photo taken and take it home with them.

With a Sunday admission wristband, you can bring children aged 0–12 to the festival area between 1 PM and 5 PM on Sunday. Children must leave the festival area by 6 PM.

Please remember to protect young children’s hearing with suitable hearing protection of your own. Earplugs are also available at the festival site. On Family Sunday, prams and strollers are allowed into the festival area, and families may bring items such as baby formula and purées for small children.
