2024 Arctic Winter Games

The games will feature 20 indoor and outdoor sports of the circumpolar north, including skiing, hockey, Dene Games and speedskating. They’ll draw about 2,000 athletes, coaches and support staff to Mat-Su from across Alaska and about a dozen northern regions, including Greenland and throughout Canada.

Alaska last hosted the games in 2014, when they were held in Fairbanks.

Most of the sports and events, including the opening and closing ceremonies and a carnival, will be held in the Mat-Su, with biathlon at Kincaid Park and speedskating and figure skating at the Harry J. McDonald Memorial Center in Eagle River. 

A schedule of events is available on the Arctic Winter Games website.

Most events are free, with tickets required for opening and closing ceremonies, some medal rounds and cultural events.
