Fullsteam and Provinssi received recognition for their work over the past year at the Industry Awards Gala, held on Friday 4th October 2024, in Tampere as part of the Music X Media event. A big thank you to the jury and everyone who voted.
We proudly received awards in the following categories:
- Festival of the Year – Provinssi
“The Provinssi Festival in 2024 set a historic attendance record with 85 000 visitors over three days. The festival’s programming and production was top class, combining a great artist coverage with an excellent service experience.
This year was special as Provinssi introduced for the first time the Festival Buddy concept, which offered volunteers to provide company and support to festival guests. Provinssi 2024 highlighted the festival’s values and community spirit, taking a stand on ethical and global issues. The event’s communication and social media presence were successful. Over the years, Provinssi has evolved from a rock & metal festival to a multi-faceted mega-festival with a spectacular programme and an excellent customer experience.”
