Tommy Cash, nublu and Efterklang among the first announced artists for Station Narva 2025

The music and city culture festival Station Narva, taking place in Narva from 4-7 September, has revealed its first performers, including domestic stars Tommy Cash, nublu, Naissoo Freeform Quintet, Vaiko Eplik and Eliit, and INGA, alongside Danish  Efterklang. These acts will take the stage at Narva Museum in the historic Hermann Castle on Friday and Saturday, 5-6 September. 

The festival will open on Thursday, 4 September, with a special programme by Estonian Voices.

Station Narva 2025 festival passes are available at the discounted price of €45 via web shop and Piletilevi until midnight on Monday 12 May. This year, the festival introduces both a Youth Pass and a premium PLUS pass option.

nublu, fresh from electrifying crowds at Europe Day celebrations in Narva last week, returns to Station Narva in September with a set blending his latest hits alongside “für Oksana” – now established as Narva’s unofficial anthem.

Vaiko Eplik and his supergroup Eliit will deliver a captivating performance featuring compositions from their recent album “Lähen müüjaks”, based on the works of celebrated Estonian poetess Betti Alver, alongside Eplik’s timeless classics that have become part of Estonia’s musical canon.

Jazz luminary Tõnu Naissoo takes Narva with his new group, Naissoo Freeform Quintet. Audiences can anticipate an electrifying fusion masterclass blending free jazz, funk and psychedelia from the ensemble’s critically acclaimed last year’s debut album.

INGA, who honoured legendary Estonian singer Jaak Joala’s legacy alongside Ott Lepland at the Station Narva 2023 opening concert, returns to the border town showcasing her boldly reinvented image and R&B and house-infused soundscapes.

Danish Efterklang, having enchanted audiences with numerous sold-out performances in Estonia’s capital Tallinn over the years, will make their Narva debut. Their chamber pop balladry and sophisticated electronica have garnered international acclaim, with Pitchfork declaring their work contains “moments worthy of the world’s most powerful pop ensemble”.

The festival kicks off on Thursday, 4 September, with a free concert by the award-winning vocal sextet Estonian Voices. Additional performers and the complete Station Narva programme will be revealed throughout the summer.
