The City Ski Challenge will take place in the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana from 2-4 February 2024. Incorporating the City Ski Championships, organisers Momentum have created the new event to encourage a more diverse experience for all levels of skier.
Located in Crans-Montana for the third year running, the event will continue to hold its giant slalom race on the World Cup track, but new categories for novice skiers have been introduced. Away from the racing, there’s also a chance for participants to experience introduction to ski touring, snowshoeing, dog sledding, curling and ski race instruction from top coaches.

Amin Momen, managing director of Momentum, said: “After 23 years, to ensure the event’s continued success and further growth, it is evolving to remain salient to its existing participants, as well as attractive to a broader cohort of potential participants. In essence, the event has become more inclusive, fun, challenge orientated with great skiing that facilitates connections continuing to be the established premier networking event of the winter sporting calendar for the UK’s business community”.
Pierre-Henri Mainetti of Crans-Montana Tourism added: “Crans-Montana continues to be the chosen resort for this fantastic event and we are very pleased to be able to provide the kind of facilities needed to make this a really special weekend. The fact Crans-Montana is easy to reach from Geneva helps, but it’s also the world class hotels, restaurants and of course ski slopes that all add up to provide the very best platform for the most important winter sports event for the UK’s business community. We look forward once again to welcoming back some friends, old and new”.
