At the end of March 2026, a figure skating competition called "Russian Challenge" will take place

CSKA Arena, one of the most modern and versatile venues in Moscow, is perfectly suited for hosting innovative competitions. It can easily adapt to any type of event, creating a unique atmosphere where every performance turns into a breathtaking spectacle. Here, the line between sport and art disappears — the ice becomes a stage for the realization of the boldest ideas.

The “Russian Challenge” tournament brings together the brightest and most expressive figure skaters in the country on one stage. Olympic champions and world titleholders will reveal new, unexpected sides of themselves. They are ready to take risks, experiment, and go beyond their usual programs. For the athletes, it’s a chance to express creativity; for the audience, it’s an opportunity to see their idols in an entirely new light.

The uniqueness of this tournament lies in its format: there are no losers here, because every participant is already a winner for daring to take part in this bold experiment. The main goal is not to defeat opponents, but to share unforgettable emotions through dance and music. Even the judging is unconventional — performances will be evaluated not only by professional sports judges but also by prominent figures from the world of culture: actors, directors, and musicians. This approach offers a fresh perspective on figure skating, where not only technical precision but also artistic expression and creative vision are equally valued.

“Russian Challenge” brings a fresh breeze to the world of figure skating. This tournament proves that sport can be a true art form. It breaks stereotypes and opens new horizons for the development of this magnificent discipline. Tickets for the “Russian Challenge” show program tournament are available now on our website. For spectators, this is a unique opportunity to witness the creation of new masterpieces on ice, feel the energy of inspiration, and see a new chapter in figure skating history unfold. For two days, CSKA Arena will become a true laboratory of creativity — where every appearance on the ice is a discovery, and every round of applause is the best reward for talent and courage.
