Arrival And Parking

How to get to Courses & Parking

Public transport

Thanks to our host cities you can use the public transport for free with the tickets!

Public transport is the easiest way to get to the courses. The nearest bus stops are located close to the venues, and tickets include the right to travel with Tampere Regional Transport Nysse. The right to travel is valid on buses and trams from 07:00 to 22:00 on the day of the event. The ticket is provided by the City of Tampere.

We recommend that you use the Nysse journey planner to find the most suitable travel option. You only need to know your departure point and the address of your destination.

The event venue addresses are:

  • Nokia: Hinttalankatu 6, 37100 Nokia
  • Tampere: Soukonvuorentie 14, 33560 Tampere

Parking

The parking space at both tournament centers is limited. Because of this we strongly recommend you to carpool with friends, or arriving by bike or by using public transportation.

For Saturday and Sunday, organizer has arranged a separate remote parking area for spectators that is free of charge. See more below.

If you come by car please be prepared to walk a little from the parking lot to the tournament center. Our staff will direct you to the closest possible vacant parking lot.

Tampere

Parking in Tampere is reserved only for ticket holders. Front Row and Fairway VIP, player and media parking are located next to the tournament center in Soukonvuorentie, Tampere. Front Row and Fairway ticket holders should also note that the parking capacity at the tournament center is insufficient to host all players, staff and VIP spectators. VIP parking space is issued on a first come, first served basis. If you are arriving late prepare to park in Tammer-Golf’s golfrange.

For most VIP ticket holders and all general access ticket holders, spectator parking is located in Tammer Golf’s golfrange at Tenniskatu 25, Tampere, which is just a 500-meter walk away from the first tee. (Google maps link to spectator parking at Tammer Golf)

Nokia

In Nokia, parking spaces close to the tournament center are reserved mainly for the VIP-ticket holders, players, staff and media. Other parking areas are very limited in Nokia.

On the final Saturday and Sunday, Aug 2 -3, there are two remote parking areas available under a 15-minute shuttle bus ride away from the Nokia tournament center. The remote parking areas are free of charge, including the shuttle busses!
