About this venue
Ruka International Ski Stadium is more than a sports venue—it’s a signature stage for Nordic thrill where ski jumping feels close, clear, and dramatic. The jump hill is designed to spotlight the flight line and landing zone, while the spectator layout works like a natural amphitheatre, keeping attention exactly where it belongs: the take-off, the silent glide, and the decisive touchdown.
Inside, the experience is intense yet easy to follow: stands are positioned for strong sightlines, and the atmosphere builds fast because the crowd and the action share the same visual axis. On event days, visitors appreciate practical amenities near the viewing areas, quick service at refreshment points, and the comfort of an outdoor venue where lighting, sound, and signage help the programme flow smoothly.
Address: 93830, Hiihtostadionintie 3, Kuusamo, Finland. Reaching the entrance is straightforward via the local access road with clear event signage, and parking is typically available close to the hill (with temporary traffic management during major events).

About the city: Kuusamo
Kuusamo, a northern Finnish haven of nature and active holidays, is increasingly chosen as a starting point for sporting experiences and evening entertainment in an authentic Arctic setting. The town and its well-known surroundings offer an atmosphere that blends the calm of the wilderness with the energy of events, making it easy to plan a trip that includes both tickets and a comfortable stay. Visitors appreciate the relaxed pace, clean air, and sense of space, while still having everything needed for a pleasant weekend or a short getaway.
Getting here is straightforward thanks to Kuusamo Airport (KAO) (Kuusamon lentoasema), conveniently located close to the town, with clear links toward key tourist areas. For onward travel, the Airport bus is commonly used, departing from right in front of the terminal, and in practice it is easy to combine it with transport to Ruka and nearby natural attractions. If you travel by train, the most common choices are routes to Kemijärvi railway station (and, when needed, Oulu or Rovaniemi), after which the connection to Kuusamo is typically handled via coach services and transfers available through the Matkahuolto system. This connectivity helps you reach event venues, sports areas, and gathering spots without complicated logistics.
When you are not at an event, Kuusamo offers a bonus that makes it “more than a destination”: Ruka’s panoramic views, the quiet shores of lakes, and forest paths that lead toward national-park experiences. Walkers often choose viewpoints and scenic routes, with river landscapes and rapids standing out as memorable highlights even without a packed itinerary. Before or after a concert or a sporting occasion, it takes only a short step into nature, a stroll through the centre, or a local dinner to round out the northern experience.
