Following the previous years’ success, the Bucharest Open International Recreational Competition return this year at Allianz-Tiriac Arena Ice Rink on 27 May.

The competition is open to all ages, children and adults, from beginners to elite skaters.

The 2022 edition brought together skaters from 5 countries.

Bucharest Open is the only international recreational figure skating competition in Romania that became a tradition, having increased the number of participants five times.

Our goal was to create a skating community from the very beginning; the idea of freedom at the base of the competition and the fact that there are no age restrictions make the Bucharest Open, a place of artistic interaction.

We held the record in Romania for the youngest participant who was less than 3 years old when competed as well aș for the oldest participant of 51 years old.

Over 200 skaters aged between 4 and 72, from 18 countries and 5 continents competed virtually in 2021. They represented Romania, Hungary, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, USA, Canada, Australia, Egypt, UAE, Kuwait, Iran, Indonesia and Japan.
