Creative Week ran June 8–14. Partner events across Helsinki brought in more than 1,000 people. ODDference ran for two days — more than 50 speakers and more than 30 sessions. ODDfest opened on the Friday and ran through Saturday — more than 150 acts across central Helsinki, from Vanha Ylioppilastalo to Tavastia, plus its own programme of talks.
None of it was ODD's alone. Curators from dance, film, music, games and research shaped the programme. Artists brought their own work, crews and crowds. Volunteers kept things calm when the week got chaotic. Partners, venues and foundations joined before anyone knew exactly how it would turn out.
The theme was Bravery. Turned out it wasn't just a theme.
Every one of them is named below. That's the point.
