The Western International Junior Hockey League (WIJHL) will take part in the BCHL’s 2027 All-Star Weekend Jan. 22 and 23, 2027 in Victoria, B.C.
The two-day event will be hosted at the Q Centre, the home of the BCHL’s Victoria Grizzlies.
“We are incredibly excited for the WIJHL to be part of the BCHL All-Star Weekend in Victoria,” said WIJHL Chairman Brandon Buliziuk. “This is another tremendous opportunity for our players to showcase their abilities in front of higher levels of junior and collegiate hockey personnel. Our alliance with the BCHL is built around creating meaningful development opportunities and a clear pathway for our players to advance, and events like this demonstrate the value of that partnership.”
“We are proud to see our players earning these opportunities and representing the WIJHL on this stage. We are also grateful to be part of an event hosted in such a vibrant and beautiful location such as Victoria.”
Other events during the weekend include a Canada vs. World BCHL All-Star Game, a BCHL Alumni and Friends Game and a Skills Competition.
“The BCHL is thrilled to be heading to the West Shore for this year’s All-Star Weekend,” said league Commissioner Steven Cocker. “The addition of the Canada vs. World format last season really brought out the passion from our players and fans, which made for an elevated experience for everyone involved.”
“We would also like to thank the City of Langford for their incredible support of this event, as well as the Victoria Grizzlies organization for stepping up to host. The BCHL could not be more excited to be heading to the provincial capital in January.”
Additional details, including a detailed event format, ticket sales, community activations, jerseys, and rosters will be announced in the coming months.
