What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Ollesummer's home venue, the Song Festival Grounds built for Estonia's national song celebration, gives it a physical capacity few other Estonian sites could match, directly supporting its claim to more than 100,000 visitors across four days, a scale unmatched by any other Estonian festival

02

The mystery stays covered

Its dual identity as both a major multi-stage concert festival and the country's primary beer-culture showcase distinguishes it from single-focus music or food events

03

The city starts moving

The festival's 2024 return after a five-year hiatus was treated in Estonia as a genuine cultural revival rather than a routine annual edition
