Thousands of figure skating fans will gather at the Maurine-Richard Arena on October 11, 12, 18 and 19 2025 for the ISU Short Track World Tour 2025. We’re so excited to be witnessing jaw-dropping feats by international champions from the front row, at the most important annual short track skating event outside of the Olympics.
Take to the ice!
Montréal previously hosted the ISU Worlds in 1932, the first time the event was ever held in Canada, and the event has grown in stature and world attention in the years since to capture the hearts of over 300 million television viewers worldwide.
For two consecutive weekends this October, the Maurice-Richard Arena will be the stage for an unprecedented international showdown featuring more than 200 of the world's fastest short track speed skaters from over 30 countries. The stakes are high this season: athletes will not only battle to earn valuable points for the prestigious Crystal Globe, but also to secure their qualification for the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Milano-Cortina.
