Finland – an ideal host for major international sporting events
The Finnish strategy for major events supports the organisation of major international events in Finland.
Requirements related to international sports and sports events have increased in recent years. This puts pressure on event organisers. The size of the economy, resources, know-how and strong experience of Finland enable the organisation of diverse major international events in Finland.
For its part, Finland wants to show that it is the best event organiser. We have developed the resources and conditions to the level required by international events. Finnish cities possess the expertise, infrastructure, resources, and networks to deliver high-quality experiences through major international sporting events.
Finland’s strategy includes ministries, the Olympic Committee, sports federations, cities and parties promoting event production.
We have created a strong and long-term operating model to which key players are committed. The international operating environment poses demands on our operations, so to develop our competitiveness, it is essential to align our operations with the international competitive landscape and its evolving dynamics. We want to highlight sustainability, equality, security and good governance.
Major event cities have the know-how, infrastructure, capability, resources, organisations and networks to act as partners and national promoters for the local delivery of various international sporting events.
