Ticket Info
Ilosaarirock is an all-ages festival. However, we recommend that underage visitors attend the festival with a guardian. Children aged 12 and under can enter Ilosaarirock only when accompanied by a guardian who has their own ticket.
Some Ilosaarirock services, such as all bar areas and the two separate VIP areas, are age-restricted. The age limit for these areas is 18.
Official Ilosaarirock tickets are sold exclusively by Ticketmaster. Tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster’s online store, mobile app or at physical Ticketmaster outlets.
In the Joensuu area, Ilosaarirock tickets are sold at the Ticketmaster outlet located inside Ravintola Aiho in Lehmo. Only Ilosaarirock tickets are available for purchase at this location.
At Aiho, you can pay using most major debit and credit cards, cash and most common culture benefits (Epassi, Smartum and Edenred). Ticketmaster’s service fees will be added to the ticket price. When paying with a culture benefit, an additional payment method fee of 10€ will also be added at Aiho.
To make your visit to Aiho that bit smoother, we recommend creating a Ticketmaster account before heading to the ticket shop.
For reselling or purchasing resale tickets, we recommend using only our ticketing partner's official resale platform, Ticketmaster Resale. We cannot guarantee the authenticity of tickets bought from third parties and are not responsible for any damages caused by fraud or attempted fraud.

Ilosaarirock offers separate youth and children's tickets. Currently, three-day youth tickets for ages 13–17 are available. One-day youth tickets and one-day children’s tickets will go on sale closer to summer.
Youth tickets are for festival-goers aged 13–17. We recommend that minors attend the festival with a guardian. The age of those with a youth ticket will be checked when exchanging the ticket for a wristband. For example, anyone with a three-day youth ticket must be 13–17 years old when the festival begins on Friday 17 July 2026.
Children’s tickets are for kids aged 8–12 who attend the festival together with their guardian. A child ticket does not grant access to the festival area without a guardian. The guardian must have their own ticket valid for the same festival day. The age of those with a children’s ticket will be checked when exchanging the ticket for a wristband.
Children under 8 years old can visit Ilosaarirock for free on one day of their choice when accompanied by a guardian. The guardian must have their own ticket valid for the same festival day. The child’s age must be proven upon request with an ID or other official document.
If you are coming to Ilosaarirock with children, please enjoy the festival on their terms and provide them with a safe and, above all, substance-free festival experience.
Elevate your festival experience to new heights as Ilosaarirock’s VIP customer! In addition to the festival's main programme and services, you'll have access to exclusive VIP areas, offering everything you need to create a five-star festival experience, without compromising on quality!
Three-day VIP tickets are now on sale. One-day VIP tickets will be released closer to the festival. All Ilosaarirock VIP tickets are strictly 18+, as the VIP areas are located within age-restricted bar zones.
Your VIP ticket includes regular festival admission, access to Ilosaarirock’s comfortable VIP areas, and a range of exclusive services designed to make your festival experience smooth and enjoyable. Please note that food and drinks are not included in the ticket price.
Ilosaarirock VIP includes two separate VIP areas, both located near the festival’s main stages. Each area offers stylishly designed lounges, top-quality services and convenient water-flush toilets.
Original Long Drink VIP
Original Long Drink VIP is a two-story building rising next to the Main Stage, surrounded by a cozy courtyard with the best views of both the stage and the crowd. The ground floor features a well-stocked bar, and the yard offers plenty of comfortable seating for enjoying the performances or simply soaking up those perfect summer days. The area also has its own indoor toilet facilities to keep your festival flow uninterrupted.
Star VIP
Star VIP, located beside the YleX Stage, is a relaxed spot to unwind, enjoy gigs, sip drinks and socialise. It connects directly to the exclusive VIP front row: a viewing area reserved just for VIP guests right in front of the YleX Stage. The terrace and grassy seating areas provide space for both celebrating and taking it easy.
All VIP customers must exchange their tickets for a personal VIP wristband before entering the festival area. The wristband is attached directly to your wrist at the exchange point, meaning it can’t be collected on behalf of someone else.
With your VIP wristband, you can enter the festival quickly through dedicated VIP lanes at the main gate and security check. Larger belongings can be left at the cloakroom’s VIP counter near the main entrance.
If you’ve already purchased an Ilosaarirock ticket, you can upgrade it to cover more festival days or switch from a standard ticket to a VIP ticket by paying the price difference between the tickets, as well as any additional service fees charged by Ticketmaster.
Upgrading or changing a ticket is handled directly through Ticketmaster’s customer service. You can contact consumer customer service by filling out this form or by calling +358 600 10 800 (2.00 €/min + local network charge). Phone service is available Mon–Fri 8:00–21:00, Sat 9:00–18:00 and Sun 10:00–18:00.
Ilosaarirock tickets cannot be downgraded or exchanged for tickets with a shorter duration: for example, a three-day regular ticket cannot be exchanged for a one-day VIP ticket.
