Tickets for the 75th Four Hills Tournament are now on sale. Fans can buy tickets for all four venues, Oberstdorf, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Innsbruck and Bischofshofen, through the tournament's official website. Competition runs from 28 December 2026 to 6 January 2027, and the tournament will open officially on 27 December in the Kurpark in Oberstdorf.
The anniversary edition comes with a first: for the first time, women will contest a complete Four Hills Tournament alongside the men. It will also be the first time women and men compete at all four traditional venues.
"Das wird ein besonderes Fest für den Skisprungsport. Wir freuen uns alle darauf, dass die 75. Auflage der Tournee gleichzeitig die Premiere für die Damen ist," tournament president Manfred Schützenhofer of Bischofshofen said in a press release. ("This will be a special celebration for ski jumping. We are all looking forward to the 75th edition of the tournament also being the premiere for the women.")
Qualification days become competition days
Adding the women's events changes the schedule. The days that used to hold only the men's qualification will now be full competition days. The women will hold their four tournament events on 28 and 31 December and on 2 and 5 January. On each of those days, their qualification and competition come first, followed by the men's qualification. That means the men's qualification will start later and take place under floodlights at all four venues. According to new-facts.eu, the shared programme is possible partly because all four tournament hills have floodlights. As usual, the men's scoring competitions will be held the following day.
Michael Maurer, chairman of Skiclub Partenkirchen and president of the organising committee for the New Year's event, said he was delighted that the women's competitions had been fitted smoothly into the programme, adding that this gives the former qualification days a clear upgrade.
High demand expected in Oberstdorf
Organisers expect strong demand again. At the last tournament, Oberstdorf, Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Innsbruck all sold out. Tickets for the opener in Oberstdorf could go especially fast, since that event has often sold out within a few days in recent years. Organisers say more than 40,000 spectators come to the first stop at the WM-Skisprung-Arena every year. Georg Geiger, chairman of Skiclub Oberstdorf, said tickets there sell especially quickly every year.

- Oberstdorf: single-day tickets on sale from the start, plus two-day passes.
- Innsbruck and Bischofshofen: single-day tickets also on sale from the start. For these two Ski Austria events, a discounted "Summer Deal" at an early-bird price runs until 21 September.
- Garmisch-Partenkirchen: discounted combination tickets valid for both event days are sold first. Single tickets go on sale on 12 October.
Organisers strongly advise fans to buy tickets only through the tournament's official platform. They say tickets have been resold in the past through dubious sellers, sometimes at much higher prices.
Garmisch-Partenkirchen will also add music on New Year's Eve: after the men's qualification on 31 December, German pop singer Leony will perform in the Olympic Stadium.
