Tickets are on sale now https://www.facebook.com/finlandiat...447143480000/1010893092335399/?type=3&theater
Last year, the list of competitors wasn't published until September, if I remember correctly...! A few skaters (or their federations) announced their intentions to compete before that - but certainly not this soon! (The entry forms for skaters weren't available until roughly the end of June!)Is there any info when the participants will be announced? You can't just buy a ticket without knowing who will be there!!! :scratch: (I am afraid it won't be for a good while for Challenger Series events??)
The deadline for Finlandia competitor entries is 6th September - so I guess the list of competitors will be published soon after that.Yes, that's what I thought... I won't be deciding if or where I would like to go until I find out who goes where!
Haha! Well done! :-DI had completely missed the fact that the tickets are on sale already - and have been for two months!!! I suppose I was more concerned with getting my Worlds tix to pay attention to poor Finlandia Anyway, I just booked mine and got fantastic seats right behind the judges, so I'm happy
I'm not convinced it will be much different to any other year, given World's is in a different arena... but you might be right!So, who do we know/think is coming this year? I believe we'll have a lot more skaters and bigger names this time, since Worlds will be in Helsinki and I think skaters will want to establish a presence in / get familiar with Finland ahead of the championships. So far, only Duhamel/Radford have confirmed. Hanyu has attended a few times, but had to cancel in 2014 due to injury and wasn't there last year either. It's pretty close to Skate America, which probably means that any North American skaters scheduled to compete there will not come to Finlandia. Too bad, as I would love to see Jason Brown there!
Mao Asada has also announced that she will be competing there
This news is A W E S O M ECan't remember where I read it, but apparently Stolbova/Klimov will start their season at Finlandia.

Closing date for competitor entries is 6th September, so I assume the full list will be published soon after that. It was about the same time last year I think.Right? I'm so excited!! When did we get the final list of competitors last year? It was pretty late, like mid-September iirc?
Why not? Surely it's not sold out yet?
I just went to the Ticketmaster page to check (followed the link from finlandiatrophy.com ticketing page), and it's working for me.I went onto the ticketmaster page but it says the tickets are no longer on sale. Not sure how I can get a ticket then. I will be still happy if one of GS members gives us a first-hand report!
