Val di Fassa Audi FIS Ski World Cup
With the Milan-Cortina Olympics now over, the spotlight turns to the La VolatA course in the San Pellegrino ski area this weekend for a triple Women's World Cup event: downhill and super-G
Since its debut in 2021, highlighted by Federica Brignone's home victories, to the 2024 edition, which saw the cancellation of two super-G races due to record snowfall but also praise from the FIS for flawless organisation, the Women's Alpine Ski World Cup now returns to Val di Fassa with a prestigious new event. On Friday, 6 March, Saturday, 7 March and Sunday, 8 March 2026, right after the Milan-Cortina Olympic Games, the La VolatA course in the San Pellegrino ski area (Moena) will host two downhill races and a super-G, preceded, as per regulations, by two training days on 4 and 5 March.
Inaugurated in 2017, La VolatA has already staged Junior World Championships and European Cup races. Accessed via the Col Margherita cable car, its course combines fluid sections, speed, and technical passages. A compact, well-prepared snow surface ensures ideal conditions for fast races. For this edition, the course will feature slight modifications, including new jumps and markings to control speed in certain areas, as well as revised start points: the downhill will start at 2,510 metres, just outside the top station, while the super-G will start at 2,480 metres. Spectators will be able to enjoy the show both at the start and the finish.
