Song Festival Grounds (Lauluväljak)
There’s probably no other place in Tallinn that resonates with the local people and their memories of recent history as much as the Song Festival Grounds. Aside from hosting the popular Song Festivals taking place every four years, it also became the site of a pivotal event in the dissolution of Soviet power in 1988.
These days there’s less need for revolutions in Estonia so the Lauluväljak is used for concerts and festivals. Metallica and Madonna have drawn large crowds to the fields (but still less than the events of 1988). During off festival times you can enjoy the great views to the bay of Tallinn on the top of the hill.
