Alpine skiing. Crans-Montana obtains the organization of the 2027 Worlds

So it will be Crans-Montana! The Swiss resort of Valais obtained this Wednesday evening the organization of the 2027 Alpine Ski Worlds, on the occasion of the first day of the congress of the International Ski Federation in Milan. Accustomed to the World Cup circuit, especially for women, Crans-Montana had already organized the Worlds in 1987. Switzerland last hosted the Worlds in 2017 in Saint-Moritz.

The Swiss candidacy was preferred to Garmsich-Partenkirchen (Germany), Narvik (Norway) and Soldeu (Andorra).

“We had four excellent applications and it was not an easy decision to make, wanted to say Johan Eliasch, who will be re-elected president of Fis this Thursday (he is the only candidate). Crans-Montana brought a lot of passion. »
Before 2027, the Alpine Ski Worlds will take place in Courchevel-Méribel in February 2023 then in Saalbach (Austria) in 2025.

Falun for nordic, Montafon for freestyle and snowboard

Less suspense in the other allocations, for lack of candidates.
For freestyle skiing and snowboarding, the Austrian resort – alone in the running – was chosen for its first Worlds, after having hosted stages of the Snowboardcross and Skicross World Cup every year.
The 2027 World Nordic Skiing Championships will take place in Falun, Sweden, as was the case in 2015 and 1993 (with the silver medals of Maurice Manificat and Hervé Balland).
For the seventh time, Oberstdorf (Germany) will organize the Ski Flying Worlds in 2026.
