Olympiastadion, Helsinki, July 31, 2012

''Olympiastadion, Helsinki, July 31, 2012'' is a live album by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, released on May 23, 2017. It is the thirteenth such release by the Bruce Springsteen Archives. The concert is notable for being, as of the time of its release, the longest by Springsteen and the band, at four hours and six minutes in length. The show also included a brief five-song acoustic set for fans who had arrived early; this is not included on the recording. The concert is the third full-length show from the Wrecking Ball Tour to be released, following ''Apollo Theater 3/09/12'', a rehearsal for the tour, and '' Ippodromo delle Capannelle, Rome 2013''.
