MINSK, 4 June (BelTA) - As part of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, KHL President Alexei Morozov and HC Dinamo Minsk’s General Director Artyom Karkotsky signed an agreement confirming Minsk as the host city for the 2027 All-Star Week. The event will take place at Minsk Arena, in Minsk, Belarus, BelTA learned from the press service of HC Dinamo Minsk.
The upcoming KHL All-Star Game in the Belarusian capital will be the second in the country’s history. Minsk previously hosted the league’s top players in 2010 when Minsk Arena officially opened its doors as Belarus’ premier hockey venue. Seventeen years later, the arena will once again welcome the league’s stars, with the festivities scheduled for 6-7 February 2027.
Fans can look forward to not only sports skill competitions and a 3x3 mini-tournament, but also a large-scale entertainment program featuring partner activities, fan zones, and performances by popular music stars. The start of ticket sales will be announced at a later date.
“In recent years, the city and the whole country have fallen in love with hockey, and Belarus is now experiencing a true hockey boom, Aleksei Morozov said. “HC Dinamo Minsk has achieved the best result in the club’s history for two years in a row, reaching the second round of the Gagarin Cup playoffs. In the 2025-2026 season, the club sold out all 38 home games, attracting more than 15,000 people at each match. Belarusian fans, with their passion for hockey and vibrant support of the team, have earned such a major celebration as the KHL All-Star Game. I would like to thank the leadership of Belarus and Dinamo Minsk for their interest in hosting the event and their desire to organize it at the highest level – we are waiting for all fans in Minsk in February 2027!”
“Our arena, the show, the atmosphere, and the fan culture that has developed in Minsk have become a true brand known across the KHL landscape. Fans from other league clubs and even from the most remote parts of our country travel to us to experience this unique hockey atmosphere,” Dinamo Minsk’s General Director Artyom Karkotsky said. “I would like to thank the Kontinental Hockey League for giving us the opportunity to once again bring together the best of the best at home. In addition, Belarusian fans will for the first time be able to see the top young talents at the JHL Challenge Cup!”
