WFF X – New Nordic The 2026 edition is the tenth event, so WFF X brings together businesses, decision-makers, universities, research, culture and civil society to explore future development in Ostrobothnia and across Finland. The main theme is New Nordic. The programme is based on a proven concept, and the overall structure and day themes are currently being outlined. More details will follow shortly. Last year’s programme can be viewed here: wasafuturefestival.fi Culture & Public Programme In our vision festival Saturday will also include a public programme with talks, culture and performances. A key feature in 2026 will be an immersive art-and-science experience in the catacombs of Bock’s Village, continuing the internationally noted Butterfly exhibition. An immersive sculptural experience is created by visual artist and volcano analyst Benjamin Knock (Australia).
