Tour Details:

Helsinki Cup – Over the last three decades, over 200,000 goals have been celebrated in over 50,000 matches in the Helsinki Cup. Countless screams of joy, tears of defeat and nail-biting excitement of penalty shoot-outs have been recorded on the football pitches around Helsinki every July. We’ve even seen our share of incredible howlers as well.

Helsinki Cup could never have reached its current status without its international aspect. The numbers of foreign teams have gone up and down over the years, but representatives from 78 countries have made their way to Helsinki over the last three decades. In addition to the neighbouring countries, particularly football’s giant nation Brazil, has been strongly represented throughout the years. Countries like Gambia, Djibouti, Kazakhstan, Madagascar, Seychelles, New Zealand and many others have brought in their exotic touches to the event.

We believe that it is important to make a tournament a lifelong memory. A moment for everyone – a moment of harmony and kinship. We want to create this very moment with the Gothia Opening Ceremony. Previous participants have compared it to an Olympic ceremony and that’s the idea. The atmosphere surrounding the opening of the Gothia Cup is electric, enough to make you shiver with excitement. It’s a memory you’ll remember and smile at for the rest of your life.
