2018 MIHF Winter Championship

The 2018 MIHF Winter Championship is the third Championship event hosted by the Mapperdonian Ice Hockey Federation (MIHF), being held in Seattle and San Francisco, Western Republic. The tournament took place from December 22, 2017 to January 14, 2018.

Venues
The Western Republic was chosen to host the third games. This is the second time the Western Republic has hosted an MIHF Championship. The Ice Hockey Federation of the Western Republic announced on December 13, 2017 that they had chosen the Boeing Arena in Seattle and the WBC Arena in San Francisco to be the venues of this championship. The final match will be played in the Boeing Arena.

The WestAir Centre in Calgary was considered, but was eventually ruled out, because it recently hosted Mappervision, and it is located in one of the host cities of a previous MIHF Championship.

The Western Republic hosted the 2017 MIHF Winter Championship, with the venues being the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, and the former Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary.
