On the first weekend in August, fans from Latvia, Lithuania and even Poland will flood Estonia\u2019s summer capital. Many tickets were already sold in spring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>Jyri Keikkinen<\/b><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> from RL Concert recommends buying your tickets ahead of time, because Weekend Festival Baltic sells out every year. They are anticipating about 30,000 visitors this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Part of the festival\u2019s popularity is thanks to P\u00e4rnu itself. \u201cP\u00e4rnu is fantastic at organising festivals, the atmosphere also adds to its popularity. You can get there from Helsinki, Tallinn, and Riga in a couple of hours\u201d, he explains.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWeekend Festival has received a lot of praise from both visitors and performers\u201d, Keikkinen adds. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">This year, you can look forward to some big names like The Chainsmokers, <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><b>Armin Van Buuren,<\/b><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> Alesso, Clean Bandit, Deadmau5 and <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><b>Marin Garrix.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThe selection of artists has also changed more from EDM to pop music. We always want to improve and keep up with the times\u201d, explains Heikkinen. The festival also has many different food options, as well as many different programmes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s4\" style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Location<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>Weekend Festival Baltic, <\/b><\/span><span class=\"s5\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.ee\/maps\/place\/P%C3%A4rnu+rand\/@58.3710517,24.503192,16.25z\/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x46ecfd1ac583db5d:0xfdd6b79b1fe86560!8m2!3d58.3720152!4d24.5025953?hl=et\">3.-5.8, P\u00e4rnu beach.<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.weekendbaltic.com\/\">www.weekendbaltic.com<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Click on the address to see the location.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">TEXT MIKKO VIRTA, PHOTOS GEOFFREY HUBBEL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weekend Festival Baltic brings electronica and thousands of people to P\u00e4rnu. &nbsp; The third annual Weekend Festival Baltic is already &hellip; <span class=\"read-more-excerpt\">Read more<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":31793,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[142,248,249,250,251,252,253,294,295,296],"class_list":["post-31792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-leisure","tag-parnu","tag-weekend-festival-baltic","tag-the-chainsmokers","tag-armin-van-buuren","tag-alesso","tag-clean-bandit","tag-deadmau5","tag-jyri-keikkinen","tag-summerfest","tag-marin-garrix"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31792\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31793"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
