    FIS has released the FIS Cross Country World Cup 2026/27 calendar: https://assets.fis-ski.com/f/252177/x/46d75109f7/wc-cal_nordic26-27.pdf 
     
    27.-29.11. Ruka (FIN)
    04.-06.12. Trondheim (NOR)
    11.-13.12. Davos (SUI)
    31.12.-03.01. Les Rousses (FRA)
    05.-06.01. Oberstdorf (GER)
    08.-10.01. Val Di Fiemme (ITA)
    22.-24.01. Engadin (SUI)
    29.-31.01. Toblach (ITA)
    12.-14.02. Lahti (FIN)
    22.02-07.03-2027 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, Falun (SWE)
    12.-14.03 Oslo (NOR)
    16.03. Drammen (NOR)
    19.-21.03 Ulricehamn (SWE)
     
    oddities in the calendar:
     
    1:There is no stage for the dates 18.-20.12. It turns out that at the beginning of the season there is a 2-week break from 14.-27.12 without any starts; there is no reason for such a long break.
    2:Oberstdorf at the Tour de Ski. FIS kicked Oberstdorf out of the Tour de Ski because the weather there was always something wrong and stages were constantly being cancelled, promising that it would no longer do business with Oberstdorf and that there would be no more weather problems at the Tour de Ski. What is Oberstdorf doing at the Tour de Ski again?
    3: There is no stage scheduled for February 5-7. This means there's a week-long break without competitions mid-season from February 1-7; there is no reason for such a break.
    4: The stage in Lahti (FIN) in mid-February. It can be -25 degrees Celsius in Finland in mid-February. Why risk canceling the stage?
    5: The stage in Oslo (NOR) is scheduled immediately after the 22.02-07.03.2027 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, Falun (SWE), which means there will be no 50 km marathon in Oslo (NOR). FIS will not schedule a 50 km marathon for the stage before the 22.02-07.03.2027 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, Falun (SWE), since no one will come. This means the 50 km marathon will be at the season finale at the end of March in Ulricehamn (SWE). But Ulricehamn (SWE) is Sweden. Also, Ulricehamn (SWE) is southern Sweden. At the end of March, there is snow in Canada,iceland,Australia, and New Zealand. There is also snow in Tibet China, and Japan. But Japan and China have a very negative attitude towards foreigners and will not cooperate with FIS. If the final stage with a 50 km marathon were in Canada,iceland,Australia, or New Zealand, there would be no questions, but southern Sweden? What is FIS thinking?
