At Tarkastamo, Björk will perform a DJ set and invite the audience to share a listening experience with her. This is not a traditional concert, but a musical journey selected by Björk herself, spanning different genres, cultures and parts of the world. This year, Björk has performed as a DJ at events including the Venice Biennale and in Reykjavík in connection with her exhibition.
Björk will perform at Tarkastamo on Sunday 15 November at 5pm. Doors open at 4pm. The event is for audiences aged 18 and over. Further details of the programme will be announced closer to the event.
“We are incredibly happy to bring Björk’s outstanding exhibition to Oulu. In addition to the exhibition, she will perform a special DJ set, giving us the chance to hear music that Björk herself loves,” says Henri Turunen, Programme Manager at Oulu2026.
