Holmenkollen FIS World Cup Nordic

Holmenkollen Ski Festival, part of the FIS World Cup Nordic Disciplines, gathers the world's ski elite in nordic disciplines for exciting competitions in the beautiful Holmenkollen area every year. Tens of thousands of spectators take their place inside the Holmenkollen Arena or along the ski tracks and make the festival an entertaining event.

The 2010 World Cup competition will be the first major event after the rebuilding of the Holmenkollen Ski Jump and Arena, and is considered "trial championships" before the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Holmenkollen in 2011.
