Successful premiere

The first BMW IBU World Cup Biathlon Lenzerheide was a success - and has fuelled even more interest for the World Championships at the same venue in February 2025. A total of 22'500 spectators streamed into the Roland Arena over the four days of competition. They turned the first showdown of the world's biathlon elite in the Grisons holiday region into a major sporting event.
