Junior Grand Prix of Russia in Figure Skating 2026/2027: Stages and Final
The Junior Grand Prix of Russia series for the 2026/2027 season consists of six stages, one more than the senior series. The tournament opens the competition year: juniors take to the ice before the main national team. The calendar has been approved by the Figure Skating Federation of Russia; the exact dates of each stage are published in the program.
The series starts in Moscow, where two stages are held back-to-back at different venues: the Dream Ice tournament will be hosted by the Mechta Arena, and the A.G. Gorshkov Memorial tournament will be held at the Navka Arena. The third tournament in the series will be the Ice Rhapsody tournament in Nizhny Novgorod, and the fourth will be the Krasnoyarsk Arena in Krasnoyarsk. The fifth event is "Gold of the Urals" in Yekaterinburg, and the program concludes with "Heart of Siberia" in Omsk.
In Nizhny Novgorod, Krasnoyarsk, Yekaterinburg, and Omsk, the junior stages have the same names as the adult stages, but are held at different times. Moscow is hosting only junior tournaments this season, while St. Petersburg is hosting only the adult stage.
How Participants Are Selected
Skaters who meet the age requirements and are registered with the federation are eligible to compete in the junior events. Points are awarded at each stage, and the finalists are determined based on their total. Unlike the adult series, where the composition of participants is relatively stable, in the junior category it changes from season to season: athletes quickly surpass age limits and move on to the senior level.
Disciplines and Program
The same four sets of awards are awarded at the junior stages as in the senior series: men's and ladies' singles, pairs, and ice dance. The requirements for the program content are more lenient than in the adult series: the free program is shorter, the set of compulsory elements is different, and there are restrictions on the number of jump attempts. At the same time, quadruple jumps and the triple Axel are regularly entered in junior single skating.
Junior Grand Prix Final
The Final brings together the strongest participants based on the results of the stages. For many athletes, this is the main start of the season and an opportunity to make a name for themselves in the fight for a place on the junior team. Winning the final often becomes a notable mark on a skater's biography and strengthens their position before moving on to the senior series.
