Tour Schedule and Cities

The 2026 Stars on Ice Tour visits arenas across the United States including Estero, Sunrise, Orlando, Greenville, Greensboro, Boston, Albany, Providence, Newark, Hershey, Elmont, Rochester, St. Louis, Chicago, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Anaheim, Seattle, Portland, Dallas, and Southaven. Each show features the complete cast of Olympic and World Champions performing choreographed ensemble numbers alongside individual performances.

Shows typically run approximately two hours with an intermission, featuring both individual performances and group numbers choreographed to showcase the skaters' technical abilities and artistic interpretation. The production includes elaborate lighting, music, and staging that transforms standard hockey arenas into theatrical ice spectacles.

Meet the Skaters: VIP Experiences Available

Stars on Ice offers two exclusive ways to meet the skaters through Pre-Show Stargazer and Meet & Greet passes (available through resellers for select shows). Stargazer pass holders arrive early to watch skaters warm up on the ice and enjoy a Q&A session with two cast members before the show begins.

Meet & Greet pass holders stay after the performance to meet the cast, take selfies, and get autographs from their favorite skaters. These limited-availability experiences provide rare opportunities for personal interaction with Olympic and World Champions, making the show even more memorable for dedicated figure skating fans.

What to Expect from the 2026 Performance

Following the 2026 Winter Olympics, this tour celebrates America's performance at the Games with fresh energy and momentum. With U.S. skaters holding World titles in three of four disciplines heading into the Olympics, expectations are high for historic medal performances in Italy. The tour provides fans with opportunities to celebrate those achievements while witnessing world-class figure skating in their home cities.

Each performance features a mix of technical elements and artistic interpretation. Expect to see quadruple jumps from Malinin, intricate footwork from ice dancers Chock and Bates, graceful spins and combinations from the ladies competitors, and synchronized ensemble numbers featuring the entire cast. The production balances athletic achievement with entertainment value, making it accessible for both hardcore figure skating fans and casual audiences.

Understanding Figure Skating Excellence

Modern elite figure skating combines athletics and artistry at the highest levels. Ilia Malinin's quadruple Axel—four and a half rotations in the air—represents one of skating's most difficult elements. Alysa Liu's technical precision and competitive consistency earned her World Championship gold. Madison Chock and Evan Bates demonstrate ice dance mastery through intricate footwork, lifts, and musical interpretation that requires years of partnership to perfect.

The 2025 World Championships in Boston saw American skaters achieve unprecedented success, setting the stage for the 2026 Olympics. This Stars on Ice tour captures that momentum, allowing fans to experience the same performances that earned World titles, but in an intimate, accessible format without the pressure of competition.

Many families attend together, making it an excellent introduction to live figure skating for children.

What should I wear to a Stars on Ice show?

Casual attire is appropriate for Stars on Ice shows. Since the show takes place in ice arenas that are kept cool for the skating surface, bringing a light jacket or sweater is recommended for comfort. There is no formal dress code, and most attendees wear comfortable casual clothing.

Can I take photos during the Stars on Ice performance?

Photography policies vary by venue, but many arenas allow personal photos without flash or professional equipment. Video recording may be restricted. Check your specific venue's policies before the show to understand what's permitted. Social media sharing is generally encouraged by the tour.

How is buying from a resale marketplace different from primary ticket sales?

Resale marketplaces provide access to tickets after primary sales conclude or when shows sell out. We aggregate inventory from verified sellers offering competitive pricing and often better seat selection than remaining primary inventory. Our transparent platform shows upfront all-inclusive pricing from multiple sellers, allowing you to compare options and find the best value.

What seating options are best for figure skating shows?

Lower bowl seats provide excellent sightlines of the entire ice surface and proximity to the action. Floor seats near the ice offer intimate views but limited perspective on overhead elements like jumps. Upper level seats provide full-view perspective of formations and ensemble numbers. Some shows offer limited on-ice seating for ultimate proximity to the performers.

Will there be merchandise available at the shows?

Yes, most Stars on Ice tour stops feature merchandise stands selling tour-specific items, skater photos, programs, and memorabilia. Merchandise typically goes on sale when doors open and remains available through intermission and after the show while supplies last.

What happens if I cannot attend after purchasing tickets?

Many mobile tickets allow transfer to other individuals, though capabilities depend on specific ticket types and venue restrictions. Our customer service team can provide guidance on transferring your tickets if plans change. Some resellers may offer exchange or return options depending on their individual policies.

How early should I arrive at the venue?

Arriving 45-60 minutes before showtime allows sufficient time for parking, security screening, finding seats, and potentially purchasing concessions or merchandise before the show begins. VIP pass holders should arrive even earlier according to their specific pass requirements for pre-show activities.

Does the tour feature the same skaters at every stop?

The main cast of Olympic and World Champions performs at all tour stops, though guest skaters may vary by location. The official Stars on Ice website announces any cast changes or special guest appearances for specific shows. The core lineup of headliners remains consistent throughout the tour.
