Overview

• The German Ski Association (DSV) has officially entered the race to host the 2031 Nordic World Championships in ski jumping, cross-country skiing, and Nordic combined.
• Germany shifted its bid from 2033 to 2031 following the withdrawal of Austrian venues Ramsau and Bischofshofen.
• Potential host locations include Oberstdorf in Bavaria, which has hosted three previous championships, or a joint bid by Oberwiesenthal and Klingenthal in Saxony, which would be first-time hosts.
• Slovenia's Planica, which hosted the event in 2023, is Germany's main competitor for the 2031 championship.
• The final decision on the host city will be made in mid-2026, with the DSV preparing submissions for both potential German sites.
