About 2026 Hlinka Gretzky Cup: Canada v. Sweden

The Hlinka Gretzky Cup brings top under-18 national teams to Rogers Place for the Canada v. Sweden clash, and this is a marquee matchup that draws a big crowd. Since the game is in downtown Edmonton, picking the right base determines whether you walk to your seat or plan around a drive, so it's worth matching your stay to how you like to travel.

Where to stay nearby

Rogers Place sits right in downtown Edmonton, and the good news is you've got real choice in how close you camp out to the rink. From staying steps away in the city itself to basing in a quieter suburb with a short trip in, here's how the three nearest options stack up.

Edmonton — about 2 km away

Edmonton is the obvious pick if you want to walk to Rogers Place or take only a short ride — at 2km out and with 173 hotels to choose from, you'll have the most options for price, style, and proximity, plus easy access to downtown restaurants and bars before and after the game.

About Rogers Place

Rogers Place anchors the ICE District, the glass-and-steel entertainment quarter built around Edmonton's downtown core, home to the NHL's Oilers and, over the 2026-27 holidays, primary venue for the IIHF World Junior Championship. The surrounding blocks are new and walkable, packed with restaurants, bars and an outdoor plaza that fills for big games.

Edmonton's river valley trails and the Alberta legislature grounds are a short walk further out. Light rail and downtown buses stop right by the arena. Staying downtown puts the rink, the ICE District's nightlife and the rest of the city within easy reach on foot.
