The entire Särkänniemi and Näsinneula will be closed on Mon 15 September 2025

All Särkänniemi attractions, including Näsinneula and Restaurant Näsinneula, will be closed on Mon 15 September 2025 due to a staff day.

TakeOff is leaving Särkänniemi’s selection

TakeOff, manufactured in 1997 and thrilling daredevils at Särkänniemi since 2006, has reached the end of its journey. The TakeOff ride will be recycled by the Finnish family-owned company Kuusakoski Ltd. The material will be delivered as recycled raw material for the steel industry. TakeOff is being removed to make way for a large new family roller coaster opening in summer 2026. Relocating TakeOff to another site was considered, but due to the ride’s age, it was assessed that its lifecycle has no further potential. We thank TakeOff for many joyful summers. Letting go of the old soon means welcoming something new to Särkänniemi.

Check opening hours before your visit

Särkänniemi’s summer season is drawing to a close. Please check the opening hours before your visit. Also, make sure to review the ride opening hours, as they may differ from the amusement park’s general opening hours.
