The international event will welcome 38 countries and over 530 athletes to compete in three Nordic Skiing disciplines at Whistler Olympic Park from January 27 to February 5, 2023.

300 staff members have signed up to support the competing Nordic Combined, Ski Jumping and Cross-Country teams during their stay in Canada.

After 3 years of preparations leading up to this event, the Organizing Committee is thrilled to welcome this large pool of talented skiers, who will be competing for the World Champion title. These competitions are accessible to all in-person at Whistler Olympic Park or through our professionally produced livestream. We expect this event to contribute a significant Economic Impact to the Sea-to Sky Corridor!Reid Carter, Vice Chair, Black Tusk Nordic Events Society
