Open Call for Runokuu 2026 is Open Until November 23rd.
In August 2005, the multidisciplinary Runokuu / Poetry Moon Literature Festival was held for the first time in Helsinki. We are now inviting proposals for events, performances, collaboration and other ideas that will make next year’s Runokuu the greatest Runokuu of all time!
Runokuu / Poetry Moon Festival takes place across Helsinki every August. Most of the Runokuu events will take place starting from the Night of the Arts.
This year, we welcome all kinds of proposals without a specific over-arching theme for the festival. The proposal can be interdisciplinary, but it must have a connection to literature. Performances or other ideas may also be in languages other than Finnish.
The open call closes on November 23rd. We will contact shortlisted candidates in January. Unfortunately, we cannot provide feedback on proposals or selection decisions.
