The programme of the World Cup event in Zakopane already announced

The World Cup event in Zakopane is coming in leaps and bounds. In three months, the WC circuit will stop off at the foot of Tatra mountains. The organisers have already started the promotion campaign of this prestigious event. They have recently announced the prices of the tickets which, unfortunately, are quite high, and now they are announcing the programme of the event.

The teams are due to arrive on Thursday. On Friday, it will be possible to see the ski jumpers at official training. On Friday evening, the last chance to have a crack before the very competition - the qualification round.

The Saturday evening event will start with the trial round, which will be followed by the competition. The details haven’t been made known yet, but the organisers will surely do everything in their power so that all the fans enjoy the event at least as much as in previous years, or even more.
