Looking for a fun activity during a trip to Helsinki, I booked 4 tickets to watch HIFK (play ice hockey. Helsinki has 2 main ice hockey teams; HIFK who play in the Finnish leagues at the Ice Hall near the Olympic stadium and other sports arenas, and 'Jokerit' who seem to play in an inter-continental league made up largely of Russian teams, with home games at the Hartwall Arena just up the road. As our tour guide told us, Finland is one of, if not the only, country where ice hockey is more popular than football, and so going to a match was a great experience. Brilliant music, lights, dancing and some top quality ice hockey makes it a brilliant activity. Booking a week before through the website, there were not many tickets left, but I managed to get 4 together fairly high up in the stands for €25 each - a bargain in comparison to many other activities. In one end are the standing 'super-fan' areas - make sure you're wearing a jersey and are ready to sing and jump a lot if you get a ticket there! Merchandise (hats, jerseys etc etc.) is available in the foyer along with bars and snacks, and with the breaks during the thirds of the match you have plenty of time to refresh and meet some fellow fans. After that, there are a few bars and restaurants around on the way back into the city as the mass of fans made their way back into Helsinki.
