2021 IIHF World Championship Host City & Arenas
The ice hockey World Championship will take place in Riga, Latvia. Games will be played in two sports arenas, the Olympic Sports Centre and Arena Riga. The first venue has a capacity of 6,200 spectators, while the second has a capacity of 10,300.
Minsk, Belarus was originally selected as the event’s co-host, but the Eastern European nation was stripped of those rights due to the safety and security situation in the country.
IIHF World Championship Teams and Groups
The Championship will be contested by 15 countries and 1 Olympic committee (representing athletes from Russia, whose national team was banned from organized play due to doping). The teams are split into two groups as follows:
| Group A | Group B |
| Russian Olympic Committee | Canada |
| Sweden | Finland |
| Czech Republic | United States |
| Switzerland | Germany |
| Slovakia | Latvia |
| Denmark | Norway |
| Belarus | Italy |
| Great Britain | Kazakhstan |
2021 IIHF World Championship Odds
According to the vast majority of bookmakers, Canada and the Russian Olympic Committee are the clear favorites to win the tournament. The two teams can be backed for odds of between 3.25 and 5.50.
Are you a fan of placing bets on the unthinkable? Then back Great Britain in the tournament winner market and get odds of up to 1,500:1.
Place a 100 EUR bet at these odds and you’ll go home with a cool 150,000 EUR if team GB lifts the IIHF trophy.
2021 IIHF World Championship COVID-19 Restrictions

- All games will be played in one city (Riga, Latvia).
- All 16 teams will be housed in one hotel.
- No fans will be allowed at the event.
