History
Tondiraba Ice Rink was opened in August 2014 as the first large building of the Tondiraba Sports Complex. It has a main arena, two practice rinks and a curling rink. The main arena can be used for sports including figure skating, ice hockey,
The ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships 2015, held from 2 March to 8 March that year, claimed to be the first championship held in the complex.[4] However, the 2015 World Junior Curling Championships logically deserves this title as despite concluding on the same date, it began several days earlier on 28 February.[5][6]
One Finnish Liiga hockey match has been played in the Tondiraba Ice Hall between HPK and Pelicans, on 27 January 2018. HPK won the game 3–4 after the shootout.[7]
Tondiraba hosted the 2018 European Curling Championships from 16–24 November and 2022 European Figure Skating Championships from 10-16 January.
The 2023 FIBA Olympic Pre-Qualifying Tournament Group A was organized in there.[8]
