Get ready for an unforgettable finish to the season for the 2016s in the Entertainment Capital of the World! The Kings of Vegas (KOV) is a “must attend” event known for hosting the deepest competition of the year. It’s the ultimate destination for fun and top-tier hockey action.

In 2024, both the Elite and AAA divisions sold out, and we’re expecting the same for 2025. This year’s KOV will feature the 2016 Elite and 2016 AAA divisions.

New in 2025 the 12-year-old Next Gen Series event, formerly held in Los Angeles (SoCal Freeze Out) is relocating to Vegas so the KOV will host the 9-year-old event and the 12-year-old event.
