FIS used its autumn meeting to present a first draft of the 2027 ski jumping Summer Grand Prix calendar. According to skispringen.com, the series is again set to have only four stops, as it does this year: Wisła, Courchevel, Râșnov and Klingenthal. The finale in the Vogtland Arena is scheduled for 2 and 3 October. The calendar is not final and still has to be confirmed by the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS). The 2026 Summer Grand Prix has not finished yet as the draft is presented.
Two blocks, four countries
According to skispringen.com, Wisła and Courchevel form the first block in late July and early August. Râșnov and Klingenthal follow in late September and early October.
Polish outlet WP SportoweFakty reports that the four weekends in Poland, France, Romania and Germany are exactly the same as in 2026, down to the order and configuration. It says the plan has seven individual competitions and one mixed competition to close the series. In the provisional calendar, that mixed competition is listed for Klingenthal on the HS140. As in 2026, the series is set to start around the turn of July and August, but it will finish considerably earlier.
Klingenthal moves earlier again
According to skispringen.com, Klingenthal in Saxony is expected to remain the only German venue in ski jumping's top summer series in 2027. The finale in the Vogtland Arena is scheduled earlier again. This year Klingenthal is in the calendar at the end of October for the first time, around three weeks before the World Cup opener in Lillehammer.
Changes for the winter
Citing skijumping.pl, WP SportoweFakty reports that FIS plans to publish the provisional 2027/28 World Cup calendars for women and men in December. Several changes for the coming winter were also presented:
- FIS confirmed the Four Hills Tournament stop in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
- It also confirmed combined weekends in Titisee-Neustadt, Engelberg, Willingen and Oslo, where the top 50 men and top 40 women from Saturday compete on Sunday.
- On the women's World Cup calendar, the individual event in Lake Placid has been moved from Saturday to Friday.
- Friday 19 February in Vikersund has been set as a reserve day. Extra men's World Cup competitions can be held then if an event is cancelled during the winter.
