1989 Ice Hockey World Championships

The 1989 Ice Hockey World Championships took place in Sweden from 15 April – 1 May. The games were played in Södertälje and Stockholm, in the newly built arena Globen. Eight teams took part, and each team played each other once. The four best teams then played each other again. This was the 53rd World Championships, and also the 64th European Championships. The Soviet Union became world champions for the 21st time, and also European champions for the 26th time.

World Championship Group B (Norway)
Played in Oslo and Lillehammer 30 March to 9 April. The 5 April game between Norway and Austria was officially adjusted to 8-0 for Norway because of Siegfried Haberl's positive drug test.

Norway was promoted to Group A and Denmark was relegated to Group C. ==World Championship Group C (Australia)==

Played in Sydney 18–27 March. The Netherlands were promoted to Group B, and Australia was relegated to Group D. ==World Championship Group D (Belgium)==
