Oulunkylä Ice Rink, Oulunkylän tekojäärata or Oulunkylä artificial skating rink consists of an indoor ice hockey-sized rink and an outdoor bandy field in Oulunkylä, Helsinki, Finland.[1][2] It is also used for figure skating, speed skating, and recreational skating.[3] It is the home arena for Botnia-69, and was the venue for the final games at the 1983 Bandy World Championship as well as the 1991 tournament.

Oulunkylä Ice Rink was the first arena where a designated final game of a bandy world championship was played (before 1983, the world championships were always decided on round-robin results) and the first arena to ever have hosted the bandy world championship final twice.
