IIHF World Junior Championship 2026/27: matches, results and fixtures

About the competition

The IIHF World Junior Championship is the under-20 world championship in ice hockey. The 2027 edition runs from 26 December to 5 January in Canada, in Edmonton and Red Deer. This page has the standings of both groups, the schedule and the results.

Ten teams play in two groups of five, and the top four in each group reach the quarter-finals. Alberta is nine hours behind Riga, so many games start overnight in Latvia; all times here are Riga time. Latvia’s schedule, where to watch and news about the tournament are on the S Ziņas World Juniors page in the hockey section.
