Skate America Is Coming Back to Angel of the Winds Arena in November
Everett is getting a world-class figure skating event this fall. U.S. Figure Skating has announced that the 2026 Skate America — one of six stops on the International Skating Union (ISU) Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series — will be held at Angel of the Winds Arena on November 13–15, 2026.
The event is being hosted in partnership with the Snohomish County Sports Commission and marks the fifth time Skate America has been held in Washington State. For Angel of the Winds Arena, it’s the third time hosting the prestigious event — cementing Everett’s reputation as one of the premier destinations for major figure skating in the country.
What Is Skate America?
Skate America is the U.S. stop in the ISU Grand Prix series, drawing the top-ranked figure skaters in the world. In 2026 it is the fifth of six stops in the series — the second consecutive year it has held that slot — and it feeds directly into the Grand Prix Final held later in the season. Competitors include Olympic medalists and World Championship contenders across four disciplines: men’s singles, women’s singles, pairs, and ice dance.
The last time Skate America came to Everett was 2018 — so this is a significant return for regional fans of the sport. The arena’s listed lineup includes World Champion and Olympic gold medalist Ilia Malinin and two-time Olympian Jason Brown, U.S. pairs team Alisa Efimova and Misha Mitrofanov, and ice dancers Emilea Zingas and Vadym Kolesnik (lineup subject to change).
