Gyökeres, Dembélé, Rice and Vitinha.
They will all meet at Solvalla on May 30 when the track will show the Champions League final during the Elitlopp Saturday.
- We are currently working on a real grandstand in front of a big screen inside Ströget, all so that our visitors can fully enjoy the entire range of sports on this day, says Solvalla's commercial manager Fredrik Westberg.
Yesterday it was announced that Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain will meet in the Champions League final on May 30. Kick-off is at 18.00, which gives the opportunity to combine Solvalla's fantastic competitions with the Sweden Cup and Harper Hanover's Lopp with (at least) keeping an eye on the football as well.
- The first half we will combine trotting and football, but the second half will be decided when our competitions have ended and then we will shift to football focus at Solvalla. It feels very good to be able to offer our audience this. Of course, it costs nothing extra to sit in the stands in Ströget. Our main focus is on trotting on this day, but we want to offer this opportunity.
There are many French visitors to Elitloppet and PSG is one of the final teams?
- We have already received a request from France if we can move the Harper Hanover Race forward in the schedule...many Swedes will probably be following Arsenal and Gyökeres, so I hope for a national team atmosphere that lasts well into the evening. We run after the races in parallel with the football, says Fredrik Westberg.
Elitlopphe weekend at Solvalla is always held on the last weekend in May and is internationally known for the world's fastest horses and the world's best audience. On Saturday there is an extra party with DJs, food trucks and the Champions League final on the big screen in the restaurant Ströget.
