With skiing in our heart and DNA

Sports and culture are main parts of Falun´s heart and identity. FIS Nordic World Ski Championships has previously been arranged in Falun four times. On each of these occasions with the ambition to deliver something new that would change the event and how the world looks at the sport. By arranging another groundbreaking event in Falun we will again contribute and develop the sport, the municipality and the region.
Together we will make a change for us and future generations!
