The men’s 2024-25 FIS Alpine World Cup will certainly be one for the books. Not only will there be several exciting comebacks under new flags, from Marcel Hirscher to Lucas Braathen, there will also be serveral injured athletes returning to challenge last year’s Overall Season Crystal Globe winner Marco Odermatt. Odermatt also took hoome the small Crystal Globes for Downhill, Super-G, and Giant-Slalom.
A total of 38 events are scheduled in the 2024-25 men’s calendar, of which 21 are tech events (Giant Slalom and Slalom) and 17 speed events (Downhill and Super-G).
The tech skiers will kick off the season in Europe, with the season opener in Sölden, Austria, this coming weekend. The speed men will have to wait a few more weeks, with the speed opening being held on the Birds of Prey course in Beaver Creek, Colorado, in early December.
After the brief stint in America, the men’s World Cup returns to Europe for the remainder of 2024. In the new year, events continue in Europe before the World Cup season takes a two-week break in February for the 2025 World Ski Championships in Saalbach, Austria, where the combined team event will make its senior debut ahead of featuring at Milano Cortina 2026 one year later. At the end of the season, the men’s World Cup circuit returns to North America for the World Cup Finals at Sun Valley, Idaho. For the full calendar, see all dates below.

How to Watch
American viewers can watch the World Cup events in the United States on LIVE on Outside. All events are free on Outside.com and the Outside app with an email address—you will not be charged if you watch the events live. Outside+ (the paid level) will have all the same events on demand. NBC Universal will also show some coverage from the domestic World Cups through the NBC family, including NBC, CNBC, USA and Peacock. Peacock will not have domestic World Cups on demand.
International World Cups (except for Austrian events) can be watched live and on demand on skiandsnowboard.live. Austria holds separate media rights agreements, so all Austrian World Cup events can be watched on Peacock with key events like Sölden, Kitzbühel and others aired on NBC.
Keep up with how to watch each event all season long on U.S. Ski & Snowboard’s TV listings page.
U.S. Ski & Snowboard is working on simplifying how to watch winter sports events with the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS).
