According to World Cup Levi, the event is being held for the 22nd time, and the calendar was confirmed at the FIS meeting in January.

When does the first run start? The organiser has not yet published the start times for the 2026 race days, so you cannot plan the race day hour by hour yet. In 2024 both slalom races started their runs at 11:00 and 14:00.
The race slope depends on stored snow. A warm autumn in 2025 melted roughly a third of Levi's stored snow, and FIS gave the race slope the green light for snow cover on 6 November 2025, days before the race weekend.
