World Hockey Championships 2026 - BY 2014

In spring 2026, the international elite of junior ice hockey will meet again in Tyrol: the World Hockey Championships are returning to Innsbruck, once again making the Alpine city the stage for top-class AAA hockey.

From 15 April to 12 May 2026, junior teams born between 2011 and 2015 will take to the ice at Olympiaworld Innsbruck. Top clubs from numerous nations are expected to compete at international level – intensely, quickly and with the very passion that the tournament has stood for since its premiere in 2022.

There is also a special offer for individual players who arrive without a team: they will be assigned to suitable teams in the run-up to the tournament, giving them the opportunity to be part of this international highlight. The 2026 World Hockey Championships promise once again to deliver top-class sport, emotional games and unforgettable moments – in the heart of the Tyrolean Alps.
