Semmering is guaranteed the World Cup until 2026: agreement made with the Austrian federation

The location in Lower Austria will host the traditional two days at the end of December in 2022, 2024 and 2026: last year on the "Panorama" only the slalom was completed, with Michelle Gisin's first victory.

Agreement made. Semmering will host at least three more times, always in even years, the Women's World Cup with the traditional technical races on the Panorama track. On 28-29 December of each year, in fact, the OESV has in hand a giant and a slalom that are disputed alternately with Lienz, which will return to host them at the end of 2021 after which, in 2020, it was again the turn of Semmering with the giant then canceled at the end of the 1st heat, due to the strong wind that had prevented Petra Vlhova and Marta Bassino (1st and 2nd halfway through the race) from fighting for the success, and the slalom that saw Michelle Gisin triumph for the first time in the maximum circuit. Now it is official the renewal of the partnership between the federation and the location of Lower Austria until 2026: in essence, Semmering will host its women's competitions on 28-29 December 2022, then again in 2024 and finally another two years later.
