The 2020 IIHF Extra-Ordinary Congress confirmed the dates of the 2021 World Championship which will be held in Belarus and Latvia, BelTA learned from the IIHF official website.

The 2021 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship will be running in Minsk and Riga from 21 May to 6 June 2021. This decision has been taken in order to adjust to the later start of the leagues in Europe and North America. The game schedule and information on the ticket sale will be announced at a later date.

The 2020 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship, which was due to take place in Switzerland in May, was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
