BLPA Worldwide Munich Christmas Markets Adult Hockey Tour
Hockey, Christmas Spirit, and Unforgettable Nights in Germany
Join the Beer League Players Association (BLPA) for one of the most magical hockey trips we’ve ever built.
This is not just a hockey tournament. This is Germany during Christmas Market season. Historic cities glowing with lights. Giant Christmas trees in medieval squares. Hot mulled wine after hockey games. German beer halls packed with teammates. Snow-covered streets and the kind of atmosphere that feels straight out of a movie.
You’ll skate against local European teams while exploring Munich, Salzburg, and the incredible Christmas Market culture that makes this one of the most unforgettable times of year to visit Europe.
This is hockey, travel, beer, and Christmas spirit done the BLPA way.
We handle the details. You just show up and enjoy the ride.
