4 LAHTI 2017 Team Invitation

GREETINGS FROM THE ORGANISERSLahti will host the Nordic World Ski Championships in 2017 for a historic seventh time. We are extremely proud to be the first city to achieve this record. To celebrate our unique history, we decided to name this year’s event the Centenary Championships. The Centenary Championships are both an exciting and carefully prepared world-class sports event and one of the festivities that celebrate the cen-tenary of Finland’s independence. A rare occasion for us Finns—and hopefully for our international guests.

Lahti offers an optimal setting for record-breaking performances. The traditional venue has undergone extensive renovation and is now a fully functioning stadium that meets today’s requirements. We are also proud to have Vierumäki Olympic Training Center as our athlete’s village that allows the athletes to unwind and focus all their energy on performing at their best.

We hope that the 2017 World Championships will leave their mark on future decades of sports events in Lahti and in Finland. The event has gained a great deal of popularity among young people, and we will soon have a new generation of volunteers for sports events. As organisers, we have also made responsibility one of our priorities. We want to create permanent and sustainable models for future events.

We hope that everyone at the World Championships—teams, spec-tators, media, volunteers and game organisers—will be able to do their best, but, at the same time, enjoy the event. Our goal is that everyone will feel at home in Lahti.

LAHTI 2017 Team Invitation 5

WELCOME TO LAHTILahti is the proud host city of the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in 2017 for a record seventh time. World Championships have been held in Lahti in 1926, 1938, 1958, 1978, 1989 and 2001.

The Lahti region is a rapidly developing growth centre near the Helsinki Metropolitan Area. It is currently home to over 200,000 residents, and the population has increased steadily since the beginning of the 2000s. The welcoming living environment, active business life and high quality cultural and sports services will continue to attract new residents from all over Finland in the future.

The Lahti region is well-known for winter sports, beautiful nature, the magnificent Salpausselkä Ridge and Lake Päijänne, which is Finland’s sec-ond largest lake and known for its clear and drinkable water.

City of big events Large events related to sports, fitness and music can be seen and heard on the streets of Lahti. A range of memorable events are held in the area of the Lahti Sports and Trade Fair Centre as well as parks, fields, stadiums, pe-destrian streets, lakes, harbours and forest trails throughout the year. The services and facilities are located within walking distance from each other.
