Helsinki Cup Opening Ceremony and Parade
An important part of the tournament tradition is the Opening Parade. In this parade, the teams walk through the center of Helsinki to announce the start of the tournament. The opening parade is a fun event where teams compete to be the most spectacular and loudest.
The parade will gather at Kansalaistori at 7:30 PM. The parade route goes along Mannerheimintie to Aleksanterinkatu and ends at the steps of Senate Square.
The parade is for teams (players and officials).
Family members and other supporters can watch the parade from Mannerheimintie or Aleksanterinkatu.
The loudest team will win a prize again!
You will hear more about the Opening Parade of the 2025 later.
