Amazing Race Suomi (English: The Amazing Race Finland) is a Finnish reality competition show based on the American series The Amazing Race. Hosted by Heikki Paasonen and following the premise of other versions in the Amazing Race franchise, the show follows teams of two as they race around the world. Each season is split into legs, with teams tasked to deduce clues, navigate themselves in foreign areas, interact with locals, perform physical and mental challenges, and travel by air, boat, car, taxi, and other modes of transport. Teams are progressively eliminated at the end of most legs for being the last to arrive at designated Pit Stops. The first team to arrive at the Finish Line wins the grand prize of EUR30,000.
The first season aired on Nelonen network on Saturdays at 19.30 pm local time and on the Ruutu+ streaming service starting on 30 September 2023. The first two episodes and the finale of the first season were two-hour long specials, and the remaining episodes 90 minutes. The season finale aired on 16 December 2023 simultaneously, at 19.30 pm on the streaming platform and TV channel. After the success of the first season, the show was renewed for a second season, hosted by Paasonen, and premiered in October 2024 on Nelonen.
The show was again renewed for a third season which started filming on 3 May 2025. In May 2025, the series was renewed for a fourth season set to premiere in November 2026.
