The 2000s are calling — and the Conscript Band is answering!

The Conscript Band of the Finnish Defence Forces is ready to take you back to the first decade of the new millennium with its MILLENNIUM tour!

The band’s massive mega-ensemble transports audiences straight into the atmosphere of the 2000s with a concert packed full of the decade’s most legendary hits. Expect a nostalgic trip back to middle school discos, The Voice music channel, and the rise of Finnish artists onto the international scene — not forgetting the era’s biggest global hits.

The incredible youthful energy of the conscript musicians is guaranteed to sweep the audience along, as this orchestra of more than 70 musicians — combining concert band, strings, and showband elements, and made up entirely of musicians born in the 2000s — will charge the audience’s batteries from zero to one hundred.

Now it’s time to pass the best millennium-era nostalgia hits from one generation to the next — not on burned CDs or MP3 files, but live on stage!


Duration: approx. 2 hours, including an intermission.

Event details subject to change.

Production: Conscript Band of the Finnish Defence Forces
