How to attend
Free standing areas line the finish for casual spectators, with paid grandstand seats for a better view. It is open to the public. Reach Are on the direct Stockholm night train or fly to Ostersund, and book mountain lodging well before race weekend. The dedicated race site has been retired, so confirm the dates, disciplines and any ticketed seating on the FIS alpine calendar.
The organiser's website is returning a server error and FIS has not confirmed the 2027 race weekend, so there is nothing to book yet.
Insider tip
Take the Stockholm night train and wake up at the piste. The finish-area standing zone is free, so a paid grandstand seat is only really worth it for a slalom run under lights.
