The Ice Star – originally called the Minsk-Arena Ice Star – was an annual figure skating competition sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), organized and hosted by the Skating Union of Belarus at the Minsk-Arena in Minsk, Belarus. The competition debuted in 2012, and was also a Challenger Series event twice during its history. Medals were awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance; and when the event was part of the Challenger Series, skaters earned World Standing points based on their results. On 1 March 2022, in accordance with a recommendation by the International Olympic Committee, the ISU banned all athletes and officials from Russia and Belarus from hosting or attending any international competitions due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Therefore, the 2021 Ice Star was the last iteration of this event to be held.

History

The Ice Star – originally called the Minsk-Arena Ice Star – debuted in 2012. Yakov Godorozha of Ukraine won the men's event, Polina Shelepen of Russia won the women's event, and Julia Zlobina and Alexei Sitnikov of Azerbaijan won the ice dance event.

The ISU Challenger Series was introduced in 2014. It is a series of international figure skating competitions sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU) and organized by ISU member nations. The objective is to ensure consistent organization and structure within a series of international competitions linked together, providing opportunities for senior-level skaters to compete at the international level and also earn ISU World Standing points. Challenger Series events had to be scheduled between 1 August and 15 December. When an event was held as part of the Challenger Series, it had to host at least three of the four disciplines (men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance) and representatives from at least twelve different ISU member nations. The minimum number of entrants required for each discipline was: eight skaters each in men's singles and women's singles, five teams in pair skating, and six teams in ice dance. While ISU member nations were limited to sending a maximum of three skaters or teams per discipline to each event, Skate Canada could enter an unlimited number of entrants in their own event. Additionally, each skater or team was limited to participating in at most three Challenger Series events each season. The Ice Star was a Challenger Series event twice: in 2017 and 2019.

On 1 March 2022, the ISU banned all athletes and officials from Russia and Belarus from participating at any international competitions due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. As such, the 2021 Ice Star was the last iteration of the competition to be held.
