Alpine Ski World Cup in Val Gardena in 2031

Val Gardena, Worlds

Val Gardena will host the 2031 edition of the World Alpine Ski Championships. That’ s what FIS President Johan Eliasch announced from the stage of the Congress in Reykjavik, after deciding to have delegates vote for a double allocation of next years’ rainbow reviews.

Narvik, the resort in northern Norway, will in fact be awarded the 2029 edition of the World Championships, while the 2029 edition of the Snowboard, Freestyle and Freeski rainbow medals will be awarded in China, in the resort of Zhangjakou. In Planica, Slovenia, the 2028 World Championships will be held.

FISI President Flavio Roda signed – on live TV – the contract with FIS for the next Italian World Championship, which will come exactly ten years after the one in Cortina and five years after the 2026 Winter Olympic Games.

Another success for winter sports Italy, which brings to our Alps yet another event of great international prestige. For Val Gardena, è took the stage the president of the Gardena organizing committee, Rainer Senoner, who, visibly moved, thanked the entire Fis family for this great recognition that will bring’the rainbow event back to Val Gardena 61 years after the one in 1970.

“A great success for Italy – commented FISI President Flavio Roda – and a great success for Val Gardena, which has a truly wonderful project that could not be discarded. It’ was a close competition and congratulations go to Narvik and Soldeu. But è so much satisfaction to have achieved this success and, I am sure, that it will be another World Championship of the highest level, as è tradition on the Italian snows”.
