Get Ready: FIS Launches Bid Process for the Exciting 2030 and 2031 World Championships!

The bidding for the 2030 and 2031 FIS World Championships is officially open. National Ski and Snowboard Associations (NSAs) can now apply to host these prestigious events, celebrating excellence in snow sports worldwide.

The FIS Council will choose the hosts for these championships at the 2026 FIS Congress in Belgrade, Serbia. Notably, the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2031 has already been awarded to Val Gardena, Italy, during the 2024 FIS Congress in Reykjavik, Iceland.

Here’s what you need to know about the bidding process:

• Applications are now being accepted.

• The final decision will be made in 2026.

FIS is keen on promoting more flexible and inclusive hosting options. For the FIS Para World Championships, organizing all Para disciplines—such as Para Alpine, Para Snowboard, and Para Cross-Country—at one venue is encouraged.

For the FIS Snowboard, Freestyle, and Freeski World Championships, combining these events into a single championship can enhance their global reach. However, proposals to host them separately will also be considered.

Additionally, information about the bidding for the 2027, 2028, and 2029 FIS Freeride World Championships will be released soon. Stay tuned for updates if you’re interested in hosting these future events.
