With less than 160 days remaining, preparations are entering an important phase. The venues, infrastructure and wider event organisation are taking shape as Crans-Montana gets ready to welcome athletes, teams, officials, media, partners and thousands of fans from around the world.

Beyond the racing, the Championships promise to be a celebration of alpine skiing and the unique atmosphere that surrounds a major home event. From the competition venues to the fan experience across the resort, Crans-Montana 2027 will bring the sport together both on and off the slopes.

The countdown is on, the excitement is building and the world’s best are getting ready.
