WTF CAPITAL OF METAL – FINLAND'S NEW METAL MUSIC SHOWCASE & CONFERENCE FINLAND – The land of a thousand lakes and a million metal bands. We at Nahka Agency and Music Finland thought it was about time to show the rest of the world the quality of those bands. That is why we came up with WTF (Welcome To Finland) Capital of Metal, a brand new international showcase and conference event, concentrating 666% on metal music. Sounds good? It keeps getting better.
Held in the country's capital Helsinki, the event will host 8 new and exciting metal & alternative acts on the verge of their international breakthrough, showcased not only to industry professionals, but also to the people that matter the most: THE FANS. That is why we wanted to host the event at Finland's (the world's) number one rock club TAVASTIA and it's atmospheric little sister SEMIFINAL, known for its intense underground shows throughout the year.
In addition to 6 showcase sets by select artists on Thursday 22 May, the live event will expand to Friday 23rd with 2 more acts pre-heating the room for KIUAS, who will perform their 20-year-old classic album "The Spirit of Ukko" in its entirety.
For the music industry professionals there will be a light program of panels and networking events on both Thursday and Friday. Most events will be held at Tavastia and Semifinal, making it hard to get lost (even if you've had one lonkero too many). You can expect an intense 2 days in Helsinki, the capital of metal.

WTF Capital of Metal – Helsinki's new showcase & conference event focusing on metal and alternative music, will showcase a total of eight Finnish artists to Tavastia and Semifinal as part of its evening program.
On Thursday 22 May, fresh metal will be served up by six bands. The iconic Tavastia Club will feature alternative metal band Stoned Statues, Helsinki's theatrical rockers St. Aurora and pagan black metal artist Vermilia, who recently shook up the Finnish album charts with her new album. Semifinal Club (downstairs from Tavastia Club) will feature bunny metal newcomers Rabbit Cult, mystical Cvlt Ov The Svn and metalcore band Awake Again, who just released a brilliant new single,. The WTF Capital of Metal conference pass gives you access to all gigs at both Tavastia and Semifinal. Please note that Semifinal can only accommodate a limited number of people at a time and is not wheelchair accessible.
The WTF live shows continue at Tavastia on Friday 23 May, when melodic extreme metal unit Brymir and deathcore newcomers Kneel Before The Death open the festivities of the 20th anniversary show of Kiuas' The Spirit of Ukko album. Friday’s shows are included in the conference pass, but standard tickets for Friday's gigs are sold separately and are therefore not included in Thursday's standard ticket.
