The Nightrace - FIS Slalom Planai
Planai-Stadion
Once a year, Schladming becomes the venue for what is probably the most spectacular ski race in the World Cup winter: with numerous ski fans and a ski party that probably cannot be topped anywhere in the world, it is impossible to imagine the World Cup without THE Nightrace.
The Planai Stadium is transformed into a witch's cauldron as soon as the first athlete leaves the start house and heads out onto the floodlit piste. Here, skiers, service team and ski fans alike turn night into day - not to be missed!

Tickets are now available via Ski Austria!
