On 14–15 March 2026, one of the season’s major highlights returns to Holmenkollen — the traditional Nordic weekend. With cross-country skiing, ski jumping and Nordic combined on the programme, athletes and spectators will come together for two days filled with drama, history, and a true public celebration.

Saturday promises to be something truly special, as Holmenkollen hosts a double 50-kilometre race for the very first time. The men will start at 10:00, followed by the women at 10:30. This means the athletes will be out on the course at the same time — a new format that brings more action and excitement to both the stadium and the trails. Here, the audience will get to experience the classic Kollen atmosphere in a fresh, modern way.

Sunday sees the return of the iconic Holmenkollen Sunday, with ski jumping and Nordic combined on the schedule all day long. Spectators can look forward to a full day of spectacular jumps from the large hill, combined with raw endurance and tactical battles on the cross-country track. It’s the day many have missed — and now it’s finally back.

This weekend will be a celebration of skiing at its very best, where proud traditions meet exciting new concepts, and the crowd gets to experience everything Holmenkollen stands for: community, passion, and unforgettable moments.
