From 12 to 23 February, twelve competitions are on the programme at the first ever Biathlon World Championships in Switzerland. Construction work in the Roland Arena has long since begun. A grandstand for 7500 spectators and the VIP area will be erected in the stadium. «Compared to the World Cup in December 2023, this means a doubling of the grandstand capacity,» says Jürg Capol, CEO of the 2025 Biathlon World Championships. There will be additional large spectator areas along the course.

In addition to day tickets, season tickets for the entire World Championships and weekly tickets for the first and second week of the World Championships are available in the ticket shop at lenzerheide2025.ch.

Attractive fan car offer
The easy accessibility of Lenzerheide and the start times in the afternoon or at lunchtime definitely make the biathlon World Championships an attractive destination for day trips - for example with the «Coop Biathlon WM Fan Car mit Twerenbold». The special offer can be booked from more than 20 different departure points in German-speaking Switzerland at twerenbold.ch/tivbiat.

The package includes the return journey in a comfortable coach, a World Championships ticket for the A1 grandstand sector with a view of the shooting range, start and finish, refreshments for the journey and a voucher worth CHF 25 for the Fan Village. For adults, the day trip with all the services mentioned costs just CHF 99.00 (Coop Supercard holders) or CHF 125.00 (normal price). For children and young people under the age of 16 CHF 79.00 (with Coop Supercard) or CHF 105.00.

Travelling by public transport is worth it
However, travelling there and back by public transport is also particularly encouraged. Regional public transport from Chur is included in every ticket. By RhB: Chur-Tiefencastel (2nd class). By PostAuto: Tiefencastel-Lantsch/Lenz Biathlon World Championships or Chur-Lenzerheide-Lantsch/Lenz Biathlon World Championships. The above-mentioned public transport services are valid for the same days as the tickets. Anyone travelling by public transport from home also benefits from a 15% discount when purchasing a World Championship ticket (discount code «WM25»).

Also included in the ticket are the shuttle buses from Thusis (Park+Ride) and within the Lenzerheide holiday region. There are no car parks available for spectators around the Roland Arena World Championship venue.

«Swiss Volunteers Day» on 20 February
20 February 2025 will be the first «Swiss Volunteers Day» at the Biathlon World Championships. The Biathlon World Championships and Swiss Volunteers are inviting the Swiss sports volunteer community to watch the single mixed relay live and for free. The idea behind this première is to celebrate volunteer work as the foundation of the Biathlon World Championships and countless other sporting events and to create an attractive meeting platform.
