The bond that unites Livigno and the discipline of cross-country skiing has a long history, which is told through the participation in the Ski Classic long-distance circuit, the organisation of several Italian Cups and the traditional Sgambeda. A true cross-country skiing paradise, which reaches its climax precisely with the awarding of the World Cup stage, which will see among its protagonists important names such as Federico Pellegrino, a great admirer of the Livigno track, and the Norwegian multiple Olympic champion Klæbo.
A weekend of great sport, entertainment and Alpine culture, during which it will be possible to cheer on the great champions from 18 different nations who will compete on Livigno's slopes.

In addition, for the occasion, the streets of the centre will be closed to traffic to transform Livigno into an open-air theatre ready to host a true sports festival.

This will be followed by greetings from the institutions, the presentation of the best skiers on the international scene and Livigno's mascot.
To celebrate and have fun all together before the start of the races, the evening will then continue with the food&beverage proposals of the food trucks, where you can taste typical and international dishes, and with a free live concert open to all of one of the big names of the Italian song: Al Bano, the famous singer-songwriter winner of 26 gold and 8 platinum records, will be in Livigno and will perform some of his most famous songs, entertaining all the spectators present. Saturday and Sunday will be dedicated to the Cross-Country World Cup races, which will be held on the Livigno plain in the Vinecc area. Saturday will start with the individual races of the Women's Sprint and the Men's Sprint, and will close the two-day event with the Team Sprint races.
