How to get to Tampere?

The easiest way is fly to Helsinki and buy a train ticket from Helsinki Airport to Tampere either in advance online (https://www.vr.fi/en) or from an ticket vending machine at the airport railway station. There will be one transfer in Tikkurila railway station. Tickets usually costs around 10-20 euros at least one week in advance or 30-40 euros when bought from the station.

You can also fly directly to Tampere (Pirkkala) but the connections from large hubs are not that great and you most likely need transfer somewhere like Riga. Flying to Helsinki and taking the train is highly recommended.

Accommodation:

There are plenty of hotels and some hostels in Tampere and you should book a room in advance as there will be an anime convention happening during the same weekend. You can find accommodation via booking sites, Airbnb or directly from hotel websites. Hotels usually have better prices through their own websites so you should check them out. Tournament venue will along the tramline (number 3) so all the hotels in the city center are basically within reasonable distance. You can use trams, busses, taxis or uber to reach the venue.
