Finnish Football Hall of Fame is an honorary gallery which was established in 1993, and is located in the Football Museum of Finland [fi] (Finnish: Suomen Jalkapallomuseo) in Valkeakoski. Players, coaches, referees or other persons that are merited in developing the Finnish football are eligible to be named in the gallery.[1]

The inductions are decided by a certain committee. The committee consists of representatives of the Football Association of Finland, Sports Museum of Finland, Football Museum of Finland and Pallo-Kopla, the association of Finnish sports journalists. A player is eligible to be named in the gallery after three years have passed since their playing career ended.[2]
