Witness / Attend in Planica
Mar 18–21, 2027Confirmed
Scheduled and sanctioned by Ski Association of Slovenia.
Dates & details verified against: Official event site ↗
Why go
Planica is the birthplace and spiritual home of ski flying: more than forty world records have been set on the Gorisek brothers' flying hill, and the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup traditionally closes its season here each March with four days of flights approaching 250 meters in front of tens of thousands of Slovenes for whom this is the national sporting holiday. The valley under Ponca is a natural amphitheatre, the finals Saturday is the loudest crowd in Slovene sport, and tickets stay cheap by World Cup standards because the event belongs to the public. Outside race week the Nordic Centre runs a museum and a zipline down the flying hill itself, which is the closest a civilian gets to the jumpers' view.
When it runs
The World Cup ski-jump finals run four days, Thursday to Sunday, in the second half of March.
