The ISU invites ISU Members to submit bid applications to host ISU Championships during seasons 2023/24 to 2027/28. Additionally some ISU Championships of the seasons 2022/23 and 2023/24 remain to be allotted to interested ISU Members.

Considering the limited time remaining to prepare for the ISU European Short Track Speed Skating Championships 2024 and the ISU World Junior Synchronized Skating Championships 2024 and as already indicated in ISU Communication 2528 respectively 2533, the ISU Council will again consider applications during its March 2023 meeting provided applications have been received, by March 3, 2023 (extended deadline of the ones previously included in Communications 2528 & 2533).

ISU Members are invited to send applications for the mentioned ISU Championships to be received at the ISU Secretariat not later than April 15, 2023 (Rule 127, paragraph 2). The ISU Council will review and decide upon the ISU Championships allotments during its June 2022 meeting.

The applicant must ask the ISU Secretariat for the respective questionnaire. The questionnaire must be completed and sent with the application.

Before submitting an application, ISU Members should ensure that the above-mentioned dates, which are in line with the ISU Standardized Calendar, can be respected. In particular, please check that no other conflicting events will be held during the period of the ISU Championships which might affect the ISU Championships in a negative way (e.g. other events that might affect TV production or TV coverage, availability of sufficient hotel accommodation for participants and spectators, etc.).

The ISU reserves the right to change its Standardized season Calendar but, in such case, would consult with the applying ISU Members and/or ISU Members having provisionally been allotted an ISU Championship.
