Coordination Group meetings Engadin 2025 and Montafon 2027

Planning and follow-up for the FIS World Championships are well underway this early spring, as two of the FIS Snowboard, Freestyle and Freeski World Championships 2025 and 2027 host venues hosted Coordination Group meetings this week.

The Local Organising Committee (LOC) of the 2025 Snowboard, Freestyle and Freeski World Championships, led by Milan Derouck and Sigi Asprion, welcomed FIS representatives – notably the race and contest directors for the disciplines concerned, as well as the FIS Sport and Event team, and FIS Sustainability Director – in St. Moritz to present updates on all matters regarding the preparation of next year’s World Championships. From the overall concept of the event to the recruitment of volunteers, not forgetting the event schedule, its look and feel, the communications strategy, accommodation planning, the concept of the ceremonies and television production, everything was addressed.

The Corvatsch and Corviglia ski resorts, and the picturesque villages of Champfer/St. Moritz will host the FIS World Championships for freestyle skiers and snowboarders from 17^th to 30^th March 2025, expecting approximately 1’200 athletes from 35 nations and around 70’000 spectators on site, watching the action of a total of 30 events up close. Since the last online Coordination Group meeting in October 2023, the “365 days to go” milestone has been successfully communicated and major steps have been taken. But, since time flies very fast, there is still a lot to do and FIS, Swiss-Ski, SRG and the LOC will work very closely together in the next coming months to make a legendary event happen.

After the 2025 edition, the next in line to host the FIS Snowboard, Freestyle and Freeski World Championships will be Montafon, in 2027. Following the Coordination Group meeting in St. Moritz, FIS representatives met Montafon’s LOC, for the first time on site, to address the same organisational topics in anticipation of the Austrian edition of the World Championships.
