Already 25,000 tickets have been sold for the World Nordic Ski Championships in Oberstdorf in 2021. While the planet is still facing the coronavirus pandemic, the information may surprise.
“There is no discussion about a possible postponement or cancellation of the event. In addition, there are currently no restrictions on the public. For the moment, we plan to fill the stadiums 100%,” confirms one of the worlds’ bosses, Moritz Beckers-Schwarz, to our colleagues at the Augsburger Allgemeine.
The decision to reduce the number of spectators is up to the local authorities or the Bavarian government anyway, the press across the Rhine reminds us. “In the event of cancellation or capacity restrictions, the ticket price will be refunded,” Beckers-Schwarz said. The organizers are insured.
The Nordic Ski World Championships are scheduled in Oberstdorf from February 23 to March 7, 2021.
