The event attracts around 41,000 spectators every year. The perfect mix of top-class sport and entertainment makes the Ski World Cup Adelboden an unforgettable experience. The area in the "Wintertal", where the racers come shooting out of the cannon barrel, is particularly popular with the fans.
The event is a major event for the region: with a budget of CHF 5.5 million and around 2,300 employees, including civil defense and the army, as well as 1,500 volunteers, the World Cup is a significant economic factor.
Adelboden is one of only three places in the world to have hosted ski races every year since the FIS World Cup was founded in 1967. The list of winners is peppered with legends such as Ingemar Stenmark, Pirmin Zurbriggen and Alberto Tomba. This long tradition gives the World Cup in Adelboden a special prestige.
