Helsinki-Hall’s new name is Veikkaus Arena.

Live Nation Finland, which runs the hall, announced the new name of the long-known multifunctional arena as a Hartwall Arena.

-Live Nation Finland and Veikkaus have signed a ten-year name agreement, which will give the iconic Helsinki Arena a new name: Veikkaus Arena, Live Nation says.

Live Nation has signed a 20 -year lease on the operation of Arena. The hall will open again in September and can accommodate 15,500 people.

According to Live Nation, the first events and concerts of the arena will soon be announced. In addition, there are discussions about the possible sports use of the arena.

The former Hartwall Arena was long known as the Joker home hall. There were also hockey World Championships.

Signs off

On Tuesday, a huge sheet was hanging on the wall of the multi -purpose arena in Pasila, Helsinki, which read “Arena’s new name is revealed under this tarpaulin.”

Hartwall’s signs were torn off the walls of the hall as early as March 2022. At that time, the Russians owned the hall.

Heikki Viitikko Trevian Kyvi LP Ky, led by real estate investment company, later acquired a multi-purpose arena known as the Helsinki Hall from Russians last February.

Juta fixed at 12.10. The name was announced by Live Nation and Trevian Growth LP Ky, as was initially misrepresented in the story.
