Ice Hockey Cup will be played in four cities in Scotland: Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The themes of the games will be focused on Wojtek’s history.

The gathered money from sold tickets will help with the fulfilment of the Wojtek Memorial Trust Statue Project.

Moreover, we aim to improve Polish-Scottish relationship and educate children, youngsters and adults about the amazing story that Wojtek lived through.
