The 2nd Pan-Armenian Winter Games to Be Held in Jermuk on February 1
From February 1 to 7, 2025, the 2nd Pan-Armenian Winter Games will take place in Jermuk. Yerevan’s team will compete in 6 sports: hockey, cross-country skiing, alpine skiing, snowboarding, chess, and sports dancing.
Earlier, the flame of the Pan-Armenian Winter Games was lit in Noravank and will be carried to Jermuk by the athletes. The official opening ceremony of the Games is scheduled for February 1 at 6:30 PM in Jermuk.
In August 1999, the flame of the first Pan-Armenian Games was carried from the Garni Pagan Temple to Yerevan’s Hrazdan Stadium through a relay. There, Olympic champion Albert Azaryan lit the Games’ torch. The first three Games were held every two years, but since the fourth Games, they have been held every four years. In 2014, from February 24 to March 2, the first Pan-Armenian Winter Games were held. This year marks their second edition.
