ISU Provisional Allotments for 2024, 2025 and 2026

I would guess it's the requirements for a practice rink. Ice Sheffield is a two minute walk from the Arena and has two ice pads. I can't think of another city where an existing rink is even practical to use as a practice rink compared to where the arena would be.

I'm hoping when the new Lee Valley rinks are finished we might have an option for London using the O2 with LV as the practice rink . God forbid the price though considering the GP

Boston

 

[skipaway]

I’ll be there!!! Totally loved the last time I went in 2016.

 

[Daisy18]

I will definitely be in Boston. I had a great time in 2016!

I was thinking of you when I saw that it would be there!

 

[Daisy18]

BlueRidge, I thought of you as well!

 

[Frau Muller]

I hope that it’s livestreamed to Puerto Rico…with whoever is doing the stream then! Peacock or whatever supplants it by then.

I’ve already informed DH that in March 2024-25 and Feb 2026 we will be in Montreal, Boston and Milan. He said, “yes dear.”

DH is happy with Milan. I’ll be solo for Montreal. And I’m already kvetching about parking in Boston. In 2016, I used DH’s monthly pass for the garage at Faneuil Hall!

So can the T get me there from Somerville?

So can the T get me there from Somerville?

Easy and quick! The Green Line Extension is direct to North Station. The only problem would be for any late nights as the last service departs around 11:30

 

[BlueRidge]

We had no problem with parking in 2016. The only worlds I'm going to is 2025. The rest I will enjoy on the internet.

 

[snoopysnake]

I am thrilled to have Worlds return to my home ice! It seems impossible to believe that the first US Worlds after 2016 also was awarded to Boston, but it is a great city for skating! I hope we have some NE skaters in contention by that time, but a lot can happen in 2-1/2 years.

Thailand That's really cool. Also in general it's nice to see 2-4 Asian hosts, depending on how you define it, after years of Central and Eastern European dominance.

Not to mention, 2024 is literally in Shanghai lol. Don't be greedy, winnie the pooh.

Well, that's assuming that China is back to a more normal existence by then...

 

[airgelaal]

It is strange that Beijing did not want to host Euro 2027

 

[On My Own]

I do hope Harbin gets the junior worlds though, it would be cute af to have some of team china being there to stan the children. It got canceled in 2021.

Prague is hosting 2026 Worlds though…

 

[kwanfan1818]

Prague is the new Tallinn.

 

[ice coverage]

Prague is hosting 2026 Worlds though…

As of Apr 2022, the bids for 2027 Worlds already were: Prague, Tampere, Budapest.
As of today, Beijing has been added to the list.

Prague received the provisional allotment for 2026 Worlds in Oct 2022.

I have edited my original post to make note of which bids are new as of the summary published today.
All of China's bids are new.
Also: Seoul for 2025 Four Continents; Lausanne for 2027 Euros; and Salzburg for 2026 Synchro Worlds.

 

[MacMadame]

Personally, I think any NGB that cancels their event with short notice should have to wait one year for every event they canceled before they are allowed to even bid on another one (let alone win one). Yes, Beijing, I'm talking about you.

How many did they cancel in the past quad? Let's not let them bid on anything until this quad is over.

I believe we're up to 4...

2019 CoC
2021 CoC
2022 4CCs
2022 CoC

I give a huge side-eye to awarding them 2024 4CCs, especially since the CCP is still insistent on the zero-Covid policy.

 

[Debbie S]

It was actually 2018 CoC they canceled (allegedly b/c they were mad at the ISU) but 2019 CoC was held (I remember watching C/B skate Snake at a late hour).

Agree that China shouldn't be hosting any skating events for a while.
