01 / EVENT OVERVIEW
What defines this edition.
Plan the two race days with the published run times, separate Bad Goisern evening programme, actual online and cash-desk price tables, spectator rules and clearly stated transport limits. All times are local CET, Europe/Vienna, UTC+01:00.
The federation and organiser name Hornspitz in Gosau for both technical disciplines. Unconfirmed: a final surveyed race line, spectator circulation plan and the complete ordinary-skiing restrictions. No organiser course-map artwork or race geometry is copied, traced or embedded; the point map is for arrival orientation only.
Historical: the 14 February 2013 image shows the Gipfellift below Hornspitz. It illustrates the host ski area, not the 2026 competition or a current authorised spectator route.
The federation identifies women’s World Cup technical races at Hornspitz. Team registration and accreditation are handled through the race office, separately from spectator admission. Unconfirmed: final accepted competitors and start numbers; an earlier race result or promotional photograph does not establish participation.

Attend with the live instructions.
The organiser publishes separate ONLINE and CASH DESK tables; both tabs were actually opened. Its online shop link led to a JavaScript queue, so no purchase flow or payment was exercised.
One- or two-day standing and grandstand admission; separate accessible/companion and VIP categories.. The ONLINE table lists adult standing EUR 24 for one day / EUR 41 for two days and adult grandstand EUR 51 / EUR 87. CASH DESK lists EUR 29 / EUR 46 standing and EUR 56 / EUR 96 grandstand. Child/youth standing for birth years 2011–2020 is EUR 12 / EUR 21 online and EUR 17 / EUR 26 at the cash desk. Prices are gross in euros. The page advertises an early-bird reduction except VIP and says on-site sales occur only on 28–29 December.

Official broadcast hub04 / SPECTATOR ACCESS
The pin is not the gate.
The rounded point follows the official regional tourism listing for the ski-region base at Gosauseestraße 52. It is an arrival-planning reference, not a surveyed race start, spectator gate, parking allocation, accessible entrance or race-course line. Monday’s evening ceremony is in Bad Goisern, a separate location.
The event arrival page describes the eastern road approach via Regau, Gmunden, Bad Ischl and Bad Goisern to Gosau. Its northern and southern regional examples end in Russbach and Annaberg; these are separate ski-region bases, not verified spectator entrances at Hornspitz. Unconfirmed: race-day parking, road controls, gate access and the final pedestrian approach. Allow time and follow the actual local traffic instructions.
The ordinary ski-bus page lists regional services including 541/542 and 543/544, with free-transport conditions tied to ski equipment or qualifying cards and an exclusion for groups above ten. Unconfirmed: eligibility for a spectator without ski equipment, race-day stops, service changes and the final bus/train connection. An event ticket alone is not established as a free transport pass; plan outward and return travel independently.
The ticket page lists an accessible/companion category. Unconfirmed: the exact booking entitlement, companion conditions, step-free route, viewing position, accessible parking and individual assistance. Contact the organiser before booking; a category name does not guarantee the complete journey.
