No place like Provinssirock music festival! The bands are great and there are many; people are music-lovers; the atmosphere is great even despite the inevitable rain that makes the front of the main stage a mud pool.

There is really not much to do in Seinäjoki. It's a small Finnish town that is crazy about tango and pesäpallo, the Finnish version of baseball. If you happen to like either of them you might want to visit the place during Tangomarkkinat, a very big tango event organized every summer.

Rytmis is some 2km north of the city centre. During gig nights there's a free bus ride to and from. The bus leaves from Hotel Vaakuna every half an hour or so..
