Finland first participated at the Olympic Games in 1908 and has sent athletes to compete in every Summer Olympic Games and every Winter Olympic Games since then. Finland was also the host nation for the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki. Finnish athletes have won a total of 305 medals at the Summer Games, mostly in athletics and wrestling. Finland has also won 175 medals at the Winter Games, mostly in nordic skiing events.
The National Olympic Committee for Finland is the Finnish Olympic Committee, and was created and recognized in 1907, when Finland was an autonomous Grand Duchy, the Grand Duchy of Finland ruled by the Russian Emperors (until 1917). Finland earned medals at 50 straight Olympics Games between 1908 and 2022, until the country’s first ever Olympics without a medal in the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics. Only Finland's neighboring country Sweden has a longer medalling streak, with one or more medals at every Olympic event so far.
