The 2026 National Hockey League All-Star Game is an upcoming National Hockey League All-Star Game, scheduled to be held in early 2026 at UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, the home of the New York Islanders. This will be the 69th edition of the game.
History
The NHL awarded the Islanders as the game's hosts on February 18, 2024, during the 2024 NHL Stadium Series. This game will be the first time since 1994 in New York City that the state of New York will host the game. This would be the Islanders' second time hosting the NHL All-Star Game, after the 1983 game at the Nassau Coliseum, and the first time that UBS Arena will host the game, after its opening during the 2021–22 season.[1]
This will be the first All-Star Game since 2024, as in 2025 the NHL will instead host the new 4 Nations Face-Off as a preview for the league's return to Olympic participation in 2026.[2] This edition of the All-Star Game will be the first held in the same year as Olympic participation since 2002; Commissioner Gary Bettman stated that the league intends to use the 2026 game as a "send-off" to the Olympics in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo.[1]
