Käärijä?s live show is a party from start to finish, no other way to put it. Even before the doors opened, the crowd was buzzing, filling up the line and already hyped. And by the time Käärijä was ready to go, the audience was fully locked in, they even started up their own pre-show singalong to Joost?s song while they waited. By the time the lights dimmed, you could feel the excitement rolling through the crowd, and everyone cheered just watching the tech set up the stage and lay down the setlist.
Once Käärijä finally hit the stage with ?Intro,? the crowd exploded. He followed up with ?Huhhahhei,? a high-energy opener that made it clear he wasn?t holding back tonight. From there, Käärijä dived into ?Ready To Go,? an unreleased track making its live debut, which already felt like an anthem. And then came ?Takavoltti,? another unreleased debut, which brought out all kinds of fun energy, especially with a random guy on roller skates, pants-less and goofing around on the stage. The crowd loved it, and everyone was fully in on the joke.
Throughout the night, there was this constant back-and-forth between Käärijä and the audience. Between balloons bouncing around, the chanting, and the hands-up-at-all-times energy, it felt like everyone was part of the show. Tracks like ?Sex = money? and ?Ruoska? kept things fast and intense, while ?Baila? and ?Autiomaa,? another unreleased debut, leaned into those dance-party vibes Käärijä fans know so well.
By the time he got to ?Paidaton riehuja,? the crowd had already given it everything, but then he brought out ?Bananas? and ?People?s Champion,? two more unreleased songs that made their debut. These songs could be tomorrow?s crowd favorites?they were catchy, unpredictable, and had everyone chanting along by the second chorus.
Then came ?TRAFIK!? and ?Kot Kot,? and it?s clear that Käärijä?s energy was infectious. The whole venue was one giant, synchronized dance floor. People were just living in the moment, and as he closed out the set with ?It?s Crazy, It?s Party? and the mega-hit ?Cha Cha Cha,? it was like an explosion of color, sound, and pure joy.
Käärijä knows how to make every person in the room feel part of the experience, and his unique mix of humor, energy, and genuine connection with the audience just amplifies the whole show. By the end, people were still cheering, still chanting, like no one wanted it to end. This show was more than just a performance; it was a celebration that kept everyone moving from start to finish.
