history
The ice rink was built in 1965 to host the ice hockey world championship and was then home to Ilves, Tappara and Koo-Vee . Originally the stadium had a capacity of 10,200 spectators. Other major events in the hall were the world championships in 1982 , 1997 and 2003 as well as the 1992 women's world championships .
The artificial ice rink is operated between the end of July and May, and the hall also serves as a venue for various competitions, trade fairs, concerts and other large public events. Every year, a little more than half a million spectators visit the ice rink.
