The geometry of the event horizon of a Kerr black hole in a magnetic field is examined at the poles and equator. It is shown that there are two distinct domains where the Gaussian curvature is negative at the pole, whereas if the angular momentum parameter exceeds a certain value the equator always exhibits positive curvature. A calculation of the polar and equatorial circumferences indicates that the external field stretches the hole along the axis of symmetry.
