World Juniors 2027 Schedule: Watch Team Canada in English or French

World Juniors 2027 schedule: Team Canada’s games

The full tournament schedule was released on September 22, 2026. Canada plays in Group B in Edmonton, and every preliminary-round game starts at the same time, which makes the holidays easy to plan:

All four games are at Rogers Place. The December 31 game lands on New Year’s Eve, so it can be the start of the party or the main event.

Groups, venues and the medal round

Ten countries take part, split into two groups of five:

• Group A, Red Deer (Marchant Crane Centrium): Finland, Germany, Slovakia, Sweden and the United States.
• Group B, Edmonton (Rogers Place): Canada, Czechia, Latvia, Norway and Switzerland.

The top four teams in each group reach the quarterfinals. Rogers Place hosts 17 games, including both semifinals and the gold medal game; Red Deer hosts the other 14.

Canada’s quarterfinal slot depends on where it finishes in Group B, so check the schedule again on the night of December 31.

Where to watch the World Juniors in English or French

TSN and RDS hold the exclusive Canadian rights to the World Juniors. Their agreement with Hockey Canada, announced in January 2020, covers Hockey Canada events on every platform through the 2033-34 season.

• English: TSN carries the tournament on TV and in its streaming subscription, which costs $29.99 a month since April 14, 2026.
• French: RDS carries the tournament on TV and in its own streaming subscription. Check the current RDS price on its website, as streaming prices change often.

Because the rights are exclusive, the tournament is not on Sportsnet, TVA Sports or Prime Video in Canada.

Game times across Canada

All of Canada is on standard time in December. Team Canada’s 7 p.m. ET group games and the 9:30 p.m. ET gold medal game fall at these local times:

Watching the World Juniors with IPTV

A Canadian-focused IPTV service like IPTV Vera brings your TV channels together in one subscription, in English and French, with a TV guide and catch-up. We don’t promise that every game or channel will be available, so check before the tournament starts.

Don’t wait for December 26 to find out. Request a 24-hour IPTV free trial a few weeks ahead, on a night with a live hockey game, and watch a full period. Holidays often mean several TVs running at once, and our IPTV plans cover 1 to 5 devices from $19 CAD, with no automatic renewals.

If you prefer the official route, TSN and RDS through your TV provider or their streaming subscriptions carry every game.

Get your holiday hockey setup ready

1. Install the app before the holidays. On a Fire TV Stick, our guide to install IPTV on Firestick takes a few minutes.
2. Steady the connection. With family visiting, Wi-Fi gets busy. Wire the main TV with Ethernet and keep our IPTV buffering fix handy.
3. Count the screens. One game in the living room and another in the basement means two devices at the same time.
