KONEMETSÄ 2009 – Open Air Forest Festival NEWS 01/2009 The 5th Konemetsä in 2008 gathered almost 4000 daily visitors to enjoy a groovy weekend out in the lovely Finnish forest. It is still quite small compared to many other festivals but this already makes it the largest electronic music event in Finland. We’re expecting a bit more party people in 2009. We believe that every event has to evolve and Konemetsä is no exception. We’ll come up with new surprises and innovations for our next summer’s festival. One of them is that Konemetsä 2009 will be a four days festival instead of three days. We’re starting already on Thursday on the 2nd of July. We’re also postponed the ending from Sunday noon to Sunday 6pm. We hope that this will make your festival experience even more enjoyable than before. Even if we’re aware of that Konemetsä is an event driven festival, we will still do our very best so that the line-up would be both appealing to our demanding core audience and surprising at the same time. Most of the line-up will be announced on the 1st of April on our website. This year we’ll start to sell tickets already on the 21st of December 2008 at 2:04 pm. This is the exact moment of Winter Solstice and a big moment for all of us who lives here in the northern hemisphere. Ticket outlets and prices are displayed at the end of this message. Konemetsä wants to put high effort on becoming even more ecological than before. Last year we did well but there is always something that can be done even better. We hope that you’ve been nice or naughty in a good way so that Santa Claus will bring you presents for X-mas. We also wish you a happy new year and good luck with everything.
