Song Festival Grounds (Lauluväljak) - Tallinn

 Local Guide at work
 
The Tallinn Song Festival Grounds (Estonian: Lauluväljak) are the grounds on which the Estonian Song Festival is held every five years.
 
Michael Jackson, Metallica, Pink, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Madonna, and many others have performed at the grounds.



 Located directly between Kadriorg and Pirita, lies one of Estonia’s most important pieces of real estate, the Song Festival Grounds. In June of 1988 these grounds played host to over 100,000 Estonians who raised their collective voices in songs of freedom that would ultimately lead to Estonia regaining her independence after more than 50 years of Soviet rule.
