Raiffeisen FIS Freestyle Junior World Ski Championships
From 19 to 22 March 2026, Airolo will once again take centre stage on the international freestyle scene, hosting the Raiffeisen FIS Freestyle Junior World Ski Championships for the second time. This prestigious annual event will bring together more than 100 of the world’s top young athletes, aged between 15 and 20, representing over 15 nations. Competitors will go head-to-head in Moguls and Aerials at the Raiffeisen Freestyle Arena, all chasing a single goal: the Junior World Champion title.
A heartfelt thank-you goes to our sponsors, whose support is essential to the realization of these events:
Nestled in the heart of the Alps, Airolo-Pesciüm has been a driving force of freestyle skiing in Switzerland for more than two decades. From hosting the Freestyle World Cup in 2004, to the Junior World Championships in 2007, and the World Cup again in 2018, Airolo has helped shape some of the most memorable chapters in freestyle history over the past twenty years.
Over the years, Airolo has earned a reputation as an international hotspot for freestyle skiing. Since 2013, through its partnership with Ticino freestyle, an organization founded by Tiski to promote freestyle events in the Canton of Ticino, Airolo has become a staple on the FIS European Cup calendar, hosting annual competitions in Moguls, Dual Moguls, and Aerials.
In February 2025, with the inauguration of the Raiffeisen Freestyle Arena, Airolo-Pesciüm wrote a new chapter in its story. The facility serves as a national training centre for freestyle skiing, where top athletes train alongside the next generation of rising stars. It also stands as a venue for regional, national, and international competitions.
Airolo has been the starting point for athletes who have shaped Swiss freestyle skiing: Deborah Scanzio, who competed in four Olympic Games, and Marco Tadé, who won the bronze medal in Dual Moguls at the 2017 World Championships, both made their first jumps here.
In Airolo, the passion for freestyle runs as strong today as it did twenty years ago. Season after season, we host competitions of every level and continue to find new ways to nurture the champions of tomorrow.
