Why go
The building is worthwhile when contemporary art or a film is already part of the plan. Its conversion from Olympic-era tennis hall to dense cultural complex gives the clean Functionalist exterior a second layer of interest beyond the exhibitions and screenings inside.
What to look for
- Helge Lundström designed the building with four tennis courts for the planned 1940 Olympics.
- Basketball preliminary games were held here during the 1952 Summer Olympics.
- HAM and Finnkino’s 14-screen multiplex now share the former sports building.
Useful to know
- HAM, the cinema and other tenants set their own admission and opening arrangements.
- Check the current official opening and access information before visiting, as arrangements can change by season or event.
