Collision Festival 2026 - Unknown Frequencies is curated by Collision Art Collective and takes place at Vaasa City Hall on September 4th and 5th, 2026. The festival brings contemporary sound, performance, visual art, and experimental practices into a venue more commonly associated with classical concerts and official cultural events.

The programme spans electronic music, club culture, and interdisciplinary performances, with the aim of blurring the line between "high" and "low" culture within a formal architectural setting.
