All-event tickets for the 2018 Canadian Tire National Skating Championships are on sale now!

This is your chance to see Patrick Chan, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, Kaetlyn Osmond, Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford, and hometown medalist Kevin Reynolds compete for their chance to make the 2018 Canadian Olympic Team!

The event will take place in Vancouver at the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre from January 8-14, 2018, and will serve as a qualification event for the team that will compete at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea later next year.

This pre-eminent all-Canadian sporting event will feature approximately 250 skaters in the men, women, pair, and ice dance disciplines, competing in three levels: senior, junior, and novice. Athletes will vie for spots on the Skate Canada National Team and the Canadian teams that will compete at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games, 2018 ISU World Figure Skating Championships, 2018 ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships, and 2018 ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships.

This will be Vancouver’s sixth time hosting the national championships. Most recently Vancouver hosted the event a decade ago in 2008, and earlier in 1997, 1973, 1968 and 1951. The city has also hosted several international figure skating events: the 2009 ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships, 2001 & 1960 ISU World Figure Skating Championships and the 1978 Skate Canada International.
