About this venue
Allas Live stands out as a modern festival venue by the waterfront, designed for events that benefit from a more open and dynamic setting than a traditional indoor hall. Its location and layout create an impressive backdrop for concerts, summer performances, and special events, while visitors appreciate the combination of urban energy and seaside atmosphere that gives the venue its distinct identity.
Inside the venue, the focus is on a relaxed and well-organized event experience. Guests can expect an atmosphere that feels immediate and lively, with a strong sense of connection to the stage and practical amenities that make the visit more comfortable before the show, during the performance, and after it ends. That balance of openness, ambiance, and functionality is what makes Allas Live an appealing choice for audiences looking for more than just entry to an event.
Address: Katajanokanlaituri 2a, Helsinki, Finland. The entrance is easy to locate in the waterfront area around the Allas complex, and the simplest approach is to follow the pedestrian access routes leading directly to the event space.

About the city: Helsinki
Helsinki, an elegant capital on the Baltic coast, stands out as one of Northern Europe’s most appealing destinations for concerts and sporting events. The city blends modern urban energy with a relaxed atmosphere, making it easy to pair an evening event with daytime exploration. With a well-developed range of restaurants, bars, and accommodation across different price points, trips are straightforward to plan and genuinely enjoyable.
A major advantage is the reliable infrastructure and easy navigation: the public transport network is managed by HSL (Helsingin seudun liikenne) and includes trams, buses, the Helsinki Metro, commuter trains, and ferry services. Whether you arrive by train at Helsinki Central Railway Station (Helsingin päärautatieasema) or fly into Helsinki Airport / Helsinki-Vantaa Airport, getting to the main arenas and stadiums is quick and intuitive, often without needing multiple transfers. It’s also convenient that the same ticket can be used across several modes of transport, so moving between your accommodation, the city centre, and event venues is effortless.
If you have time before or after the show, Helsinki delivers an excellent “tourist bonus”: stroll around Senate Square (Senaatintori) and Market Square (Kauppatori), stop by Esplanadi, or explore design districts filled with galleries and boutiques. For sea views, there are waterfront promenades and nearby islands reachable by boat, and many visitors choose a trip to the Suomenlinna sea fortress. If you’re in the mood for a slower pace, paths along the Vantaanjoki and the city’s parks provide a calm counterpoint to an exciting evening programme.
