Tell us about your experience!
We would like to learn more about how you experience Borealis – both the 2026 edition itself, but also our activities throughout the year, and how you engage with us outside the festival period. We appreciate honest feedback! We want Borealis to be a place where the art is as exciting as possible, and where audiences feel welcome and part of a wider community of curious and adventurous listeners. Your feedback will help us continue to develop the festival! Participants in the survey will be entered into a prize draw to win tickets for Borealis 2027!

Looking Back at Borealis 2026!
Hard to believe it wasn’t just yesterday! Borealis 2026 was five inspiring days of concerts, sea bathing, snowy hikes, sound installations and conversations. We met people from all over the world and explored new musical expressions in unique listening spaces. Now you can relive some of those moments in our festival recap video!
