Oppikoppi reaches its zenith
The last day of the 19th ever Oppikoppi festival was jam packed with some of the best performers to ever grace the festival’s stages. The last day kicked off with a ‘surprise’ performance by Jack Parow. Parow was reportedly arrested on Thursday morning, hours before the festival was about to begin.

Oh dear Jack Parow “arrested” & “unable to play Oppikoppi”. I wonder if he’ll “break out of prison” and “storm the stage”. Give me a break
-
Strongly debating Oppi, never been… And a MUST before I’m wiser and older… Eish, camping… Coldness… Gonna need lotsa OBS! Oh, and Jack Parow was arrested so won’t perform…
-
People had mixed feelings over the arrest, some calling it a publicity stunt and with others genuinely concerned about Parow’s set being cancelled. It became clear that it was a stunt when Parow was led, handcuffed onto the James Phillips (main) stage right on time for his performance.
-
Was the whole Jack Parow being arrested and then rescued from jail to go to #oppikoppi a publicity stunt thing or for reals?
