The 2028 World Cup of Hockey will be held in Prague, Calgary, and Edmonton, with the tournament scheduled for February 2028. Prague will host the European group stage, Calgary will host the North American group stage, and Edmonton will host the semifinals and final. This marks the first time the tournament has been held since 2016.
Eight nations will participate, but the specific countries have not been announced. According to reports, the NHL and NHLPA, which organize the tournament, have not decided whether Russia will be allowed to participate. Sweden has reportedly agreed to take part.
Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö were among the cities that received a request to host, according to reports, but Stockholm was not selected. The tournament will feature only national teams, unlike the 2016 edition.
