The story

Intsikurmu Festival in Polva

Intsikurmu Festival grew out of Polva's earlier Uue Ajastu Festival, relaunching under its current name in August 2013 in Intsikurmu Forest Park. The wooded valley setting doubles as a natural amphitheatre, hosting a mix of touring international indie and electronic acts alongside established Estonian musicians across a single day and evening each summer.

Intsikurmu Festival grew directly out of an earlier event called Uue Ajastu Festival, which ran in Polva from 2010 to 2012 before organisers relaunched it under the Intsikurmu name for its first edition in August 2013.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival's Intsikurmu Forest Park setting, a wooded valley whose natural slope forms an amphitheatre for the main stage, is unusual among Estonian festivals that mostly use flat open fields

02

The mystery stays covered

Tree cover keeps much of the grounds shaded even during peak summer heat, and smaller stages tucked among the trees carry a different acoustic character from the open main stage

03

The city starts moving

As one of the few festivals in South Estonia to regularly book international touring acts, Intsikurmu gives Polva an annual cultural profile disproportionate to the town's small size
