2025 Para Cup
Sunday, November 30th - Saturday, December 6th
Ovintiv Events Centre
Dawson Creek, BC
Dawson Creek, B.C., is set to host the highly anticipated 2025 Para Cup, bringing international para hockey action to the West Coast for the first time since 2007. This prestigious tournament, held from Nov. 30 to Dec. 6 at the Ovintiv Events Centre, serves as the final international competition before the 2026 Paralympic Winter Games in Italy.
The Para Cup has a rich history, originating as the World Sledge Hockey Challenge in 2007. Since its inception, Canada has secured five gold medals, ten silver medals, and one bronze, solidifying its status as a powerhouse in para hockey. This year, the world's top para-athletes will compete on Canadian ice once again, showcasing their skill, determination, and sportsmanship.
Dawson Creek is no stranger to hosting premier hockey events, having successfully welcomed the World Under-17 Hockey Challenge (2015, 2017), the 2019 World Junior A Challenge, and the 2023 National Women’s Under-18 Championship. With a strong hockey culture, dedicated volunteers, and state-of-the-art facilities, the city is primed to deliver an unforgettable experience for players, fans, and the community alike.
“Dawson Creek is thrilled to welcome the world to Mile Zero of the Alaska Highway and host the 2025 Para Cup, a first for our city and the Peace Region,” said Mayor Darcy Dober. “This event is not only a key part of our tourism strategy but also highlights the strong partnerships we've built hosting international events. We’re proud to showcase our world-class facilities, incredible volunteers, and passionate fans as we host the world’s best para-athletes, bringing positive social, economic, and community impacts to Dawson Creek and Northeastern B.C.”
The full tournament schedule and single tickets will be released at a later date.
