The 43rd FIS Nordic World Ski Championships will be held from 21 February to 5 March 2023 in Planica, Slovenia. It will be the first time that the country will host the World Championships.

Championships

Slovenia will host the Nordic World Championships for the first time. All competitions will take place at the Planica Nordic Centre, located in the Planica monument valley.

Host selection

The World Championships were awarded at the 51st FIS Congress, held between 13 and 19 May 2018 in Costa Navarino, Greece.[1] Planica was unsuccessful in the previous three bids for the championship.[2]

The detailed application had to be submitted by 1 September 2017. On 17 May 2018, Planica was announced as the host, beating Norwegian Trondheim.[3][4]
