Ski World Championship 2031 in Val Gardena


### Ski World Championship 2031 in Val Gardena

The highest-ranking winter sports officials of the FIS have made their decision: The Alpine Ski World Championship 2031 will return to Val Gardena after 61 years.

With a shared vision of passion, enthusiasm, and motivation, the Alpine Ski World Championship will once again grace Val Gardena, 61 years after its last appearance. This prestigious event will merge innovation with dedication, passion, and tradition in the heart of the Dolomites, a region synonymous with skiing excellence. The championship will take place in the Val Gardena communities of Selva Gardena, Santa Cristina, and Ortisei, nestled at the foot of the majestic Langkofel. Over the decades, Val Gardena has honed its expertise through the organization of World Cup races, and now, it stands poised to host a Ski World Championship.

Initially, the FIS intended to award only the 2029 Ski World Championship, but it has now also allocated the 2031 championship. Consequently, the 2029 Alpine Ski World Championship will be held in Narvik, Norway, marking its debut there. Two years later, in 2031, the championship will be hosted in Val Gardena. This early allocation of the 2031 championship was unexpected; however, the jury made this decision due to the “exceptionally strong applications.”

Val Gardena is home to one of Italy's most successful ski clubs and numerous athletes who have achieved international acclaim, including Isolde Kostner, Carletto Senoner, Peter Runggaldier, Alex Giorgi, Werner Perathoner, and many others. Current stars such as Alex Vinatzer and the Delago sisters, Nadia and Nicole, also hail from Val Gardena and are making significant impacts in the World Cup as members of the Italian national team. These athletes have brought international recognition to Val Gardena and its rich skiing heritage. In 2031, the roles will reverse as our emerging athletes will have the unique opportunity to compete in a World Championship on home soil.

“We are ready,” declared Rainer Senoner, head of the World Cup races in Val Gardena, following the announcement.

We eagerly anticipate a magnificent celebration of winter sports in Val Gardena.

--Registration and 3G proof requirement for Val Gardena Dolomites


--Registration and 3G proof requirement
For entry to Italy from all non-EU countries in the world, the same regulations apply as for EU citizens since 1 March 2022. The digital entry form must be completed before entering the country. The proof of registration must be carried along. Upon entry, the so-called Green Pass (or an equivalent confirmation from other states) must also be carried, which confirms that the person concerned has been fully vaccinated, has recovered or has been tested. In the case of a double vaccination, the Green Pass is valid for 9 months; in the case of a triple vaccination, it is valid indefinitely. In the case of those who have recovered, the recovery period must not be longer than 6 months, and tests must not be older than 72 hours (PCR) or 48 hours (antigen).

--What criteria must the Green Pass fulfil?
The certificates must be written in at least one of the following languages: Italian, English, French, Spanish or German. If the certificate was not issued in one of these five languages, it must be accompanied by a certified translation. Accommodation, catering, lifts: 2G still applies

--For accommodation, catering or lifts, the Super Green Pass (2G) is still required.
The regulation applies to persons aged 12 and over. Persons who have not been vaccinated or have not recovered are therefore not allowed to use these services. -Recovered or vaccinated more than 6 months ago Guests from abroad who have a recovery or vaccination certificate (2-times vaccinated) older than 6 months may use all services for which the Super Green Pass (2G) is required upon presentation of a negative antigen or PCR test. The antigen test must not be older than 48 hours, the PCR test not older than 72 hours. For accommodation, the antigen or PCR test must be repeated every 48 or 72 hours respectively.

--vaccines not licensed in the EU
Guests from abroad who have received a Corona vaccination with a vaccine that is not licensed in the EU may use all services for which the Super Green Pass (2G) is required upon presentation of a negative antigen or PCR test that is not older than 48 or 72 hours respectively. One of the best known vaccines that has not been approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) is the Russian vaccine Sputnik.

--For holiday returnees and travellers to Germany,
further entry facilitations have been in effect since last week. For non-vaccinated persons, the obligation to register and quarantine is waived when returning from Italy. However, the obligation to provide proof of 3G continues to apply for all persons entering Germany. Persons without vaccination or convalescence proof must present a negative antigen or PCR test that is not older than 48 hours. Children under 12 years of age without proof of vaccination or convalescence do not have to take a coronary test before returning to Germany.

Entry into Italy from one of the countries on List C (Schengen area) is allowed by presenting the following documents:

Passenger Locator Form (PLF) in digital format;
Vaccination certificate (validity 9 months), certificate of recovery (validity 3 months) or a negative test result, either with a PCR test (validity 72h) or an antigenic test (48h). Then the 3G rule applies again upon entry.
Rules for children
Children under age 6 do not need an antigen or PCR test at entry. They are exempt from mandatory testing and vaccinations.
Unvaccinated children under the age of 18 must have an antigen or PCR test upon entry into Italy. If a post-entry quarantine is also required, they do not have to do it if they enter accompanied by parents who have been vaccinated.
The Green Pass requirement in Italy is only applicable from age 12, however, for entry of unvaccinated or unscreened children, children ages 6-18 MUST have a PCR or antigen test.
Important General Information
The vaccination cycle must have been completed for at least 14 days at the time of entry.

You may still submit a printed confirmation of a negative test, certificate of cure or vaccination.

If you cannot present the EU COVID digital certificate (Green Passport) or printed confirmations (healed, vaccinated or tested) upon entry, entry is still possible if you go directly into quarantine for 5 days and inform the responsible health company. At the end of the 5 days, a negative test must be done to end the quarantine.

Measures for your holiday in Val Gardena


Immunity tests and epidemiological survey
Two initiatives over the last few weeks have aimed to offer further assurances for everyone’s health, and have been met by considerable national and international support. A SARS-CoV-2 immunity test took place in April: 962 people between 6 and 88 were tested and 49\% of them resulted positive. Doctor Simon Kostner, who monitored the project, says this means they should be immune to the virus. This data was then backed by two independent institutes in Innsbruck.
The data was also confirmed using an anonymous survey designed for people working in tourism. A good 2,251 people, equal to 20\% of the population, replied; based on their answers and symptoms, it is very likely 48.78\% contracted the virus. Therefore, these statistical data which back the research allow us to plausibly hypothesise that a herd immunity could exist in Val Gardena, which favours the wellbeing of our guests as well as that of the locals.

Sanitisation: our snow cannons
Val Gardena’s villages have become part of a unique project run by the famous specialised DemacLenko company, part of the Leitner Group. By using a high-performance fan gun, normally employed for snowmaking, the majority of roads have now been sanitised with a 100\% biodegradable disinfectant


Covid19 Schnelltest - pas
Our passion and commitment know no bounds
All these measures have been put in place to safeguard our tourists’ health when visiting the valley this summer. With the season just around the corner, the Gardenesi have been hard at work all over the area. The paths have been cleared, the window boxes are in full bloom, and the mountain huts, hotels, restaurants, and shops are ready to welcome everyone who loves our valley, looking for a bit of peace and calm during the summer away from the city’s hubbub.

The entire community is working hard to ensure the best possible holiday experience. We are raring to go… so much so that a campaign has been launched to express our feelings: #RestartSuedtirolNOW

Further initiatives will soon be announced. This work in progress will see us publishing succinct accounts of unique measures, in part exclusive to Val Gardena, to keep you posted about our summer offers which are all about your health and safety. Welcome back to the heart of the Dolomites: it is time to enjoy your relaxing summer.

Lots of space: A good 7,000m² of nature are available per guest bed.
