Lukko tickets 2026-27: hockey at Kivikylän Areena in Rauma
Lukko have been Rauma's hockey team for generations, and they play at the 4,500-capacity Kivikylän Areena. This guide covers the 32 home games, the west-coast clash with Ässät and the practical way to buy Lukko tickets.
A west-coast evening with Lukko
Rauma is an old coastal town on Finland's west coast, famous for its wooden old town, and Lukko give it a hockey identity. The club has won the Finnish championship once, and its supporters are proud of that.
The home season starts early, on 1 September 2026, with Ilves as the first visitor. A hockey night here pairs well with a stroll around the old town in the early-autumn light.
The compact size of the town means you can plan an easy day: lunch, old town, game, and a late train or bus home.
Lukko at Kivikylän Areena: size and setting
Lukko play at Kivikylän Areena, with a listed capacity of 4,500. The schedule data uses a longer name that includes Äijänsuo Areena, so you may see more than one version of the name in listings.
The building is compact, so tickets for popular games should be handled with a little urgency. Lukko host 32 regular-season games in 2026-27, so there is a wide choice if you are flexible.
The Lukko crowd and a Rauma matchday
Lukko supporters have a reputation for modest pride: they do not boast, but they turn up. The crowd is made up of families, long-time fans and groups of friends who sit together every home game. The atmosphere is warm, and visitors are made to feel welcome.
Before the game, a walk through Rauma's old town is almost obligatory. The wooden streets are especially charming in the early-autumn dusk, and the arena is not far from the centre, so you can combine both without much stress.
Lukko against Ässät: the nearby rival
Pori, home of Ässät, is close to Rauma along the coast, which makes this the natural regional fixture. Lukko host Ässät on 3 October 2026 and 11 December 2026.
Other dates worth a look are TPS of Turku on 23 October 2026 and 30 January 2027, a good pick if you are coming from the Turku side.

The league format makes the autumn and winter dates interesting. In the 2026-27 transitional season the top four teams advance directly to the quarter-finals, five to twelve play a wild-card round and the bottom three drop into a new B-Liiga. A club the size of Lukko usually aims for the wild-card places, so every point in Rauma counts.
If you travel from abroad, Rauma is not on the usual tourist circuit, which is part of its appeal. Check train and bus links from Turku or Pori, plan your return carefully, and keep your ticket on your phone with a fully charged battery.
