01 / EVENT OVERVIEW

What defines this edition.

This guide covers the two race evenings, 26–27 January 2027. The organiser schedules first runs at 17:45 and second runs at 20:45 on both days, followed by awards in the Planai finish area. All times are local Europe/Vienna, CET (UTC+01:00). These are published planning times, subject to sporting, safety and weather changes; no final finishing or exit time is verified.

Planai race-hill facts have a limited scope

The organiser’s race-track page lists a 958 m start, 744 m finish, 214 m vertical difference, 596 m length and maximum gradient of 52%. These are attributed slalom-hill figures, not a universal piste grade or the dimensions of both 2027 races. Unconfirmed: the final 2027 giant-slalom start and length, gate settings, approved course lines and spectator crossings have not been verified. No organiser artwork or traced race line is reproduced.

Archive photograph and location point

FORMATMen’s World Cup giant slalom and slalom · two evening runs per race

Ski Austria lists men’s World Cup races, rather than an open public-entry event. A spectator ticket does not provide race entry, accreditation or access onto the competition slope. Unconfirmed: the final accepted athletes, start lists and any edition-specific qualification or accreditation conditions are not established here.

Official 2027 day and combined ticket categories listed · prices and inventory unverified

Separate giant-slalom tickets for 26 January, slalom tickets for 27 January and combined 26–27 January tickets. The official 2027 overview separates the two race dates and the combined product. Unconfirmed: current category prices, service fees, actual inventory, children’s eligibility, companion admission, stand allocation and any lift/pass inclusion are not established by the readable overview. No checkout or purchase was made, and no price Offer is inferred from a category button or image. Read the linked Ski Austria general terms and confirm the actual product, re-entry and cancellation conditions before paying; a town-centre activity or ordinary ski pass does not establish stadium admission.

04 / SPECTATOR ACCESS

The pin is not the gate.

The races are on the Planai in Schladming, with awards in the finish area. This point is the OpenStreetMap town reference for Schladming, © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL, rather than a stadium gate, parking space, shuttle stop or surveyed accessible approach. Unconfirmed: the actual entry point and complete approach for your ticket are not established.

The organiser names Schladming as the railway destination and advises allowing extra time for road traffic and following police directions to designated parking. It describes event shuttles from surrounding areas and larger car parks. Historical: the linked Rohrmoos–Schladming, Ramsau and Salzburg-direction timetable filenames are explicitly 2026. Unconfirmed: dated 2027 bus/train connections, actual stops, fares, reservations, shuttle operating hours and last return are not established; confirm the complete outward and return journey for your race date.

Unconfirmed: wheelchair viewing places, companion rules, accessible parking, drop-off, toilets and the complete step-free gate-to-viewing-area-and-return route have not been verified. Contact the organiser before booking or travelling; neither the town point nor the archive photograph establishes accessible entry.

The two run times leave a long evening on site. Plan warm clothing, footwear for icy pedestrian surfaces and a return that allows for queues after awards. Unconfirmed: actual gate-opening times, food and drink services, cloakroom/storage and permission to leave and re-enter for your ticket have not been established. The wider street programme is separate from the race stadium.
