Ski competition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 43rd FIS Nordic World Ski Championships were held from 21 February to 5 March 2023 in Planica, Slovenia.
Championships
Slovenia hosted the Nordic World Championships for the first time. All competitions took place at the Planica Nordic Centre, located in the Planica monument valley.
Host selection
The World Championships were awarded at the 51st FIS Congress, held between 13 and 19 May 2018 in Costa Navarino, Greece.[1] Planica's bids to host the championships had been unsuccessful on three previous occasions.[2]
The detailed application had to be submitted by 1 September 2017. On 17 May 2018, Planica was announced as the host, beating Norwegian Trondheim.[3][4]
