This spectacular event will be held at the Scandinavium arena in Gothenburg and with men’s, ladies and pairs medals up for grabs, the world’s best figure skaters will be going for gold in Gothenburg.

You can be one of the 12,000 skating fans watching the action live and up close rink-side. Experience the grace of ice dancing, the thrills and sometime spills of the singles and the grace, power and prowess of these ‘ice athletes’.

The host city of Gothenburg is known for its friendly atmosphere and is therefore the perfect host for this event. The city has great shopping and lots of museums, cafés and things to do within comfortable walking distance.

The city also has many fine restaurants and you should stroll along ‘Avenyn´, a parade street with restaurants, nightclubs and its very own buzz.

Why watch the event on television when you can come to Gothenburg and see the world’s best figure skaters in action live?
