LAAX OPEN Announces 2026 Dates

The iconic LAAX OPEN is set to light up the slopes of Flims-Laax again, from January 14–18, 2026, bringing together the best in snowboarding, freeskiing, music, and freestyle culture.

With 250 elite international riders descending on Graubünden, the event marks a critical moment in the FIS Snowboard & Freeski World Cup calendar—and the final opportunity for athletes to qualify for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Expect gravity-defying halfpipe runs, slopestyle showdowns, and high-energy rail battles in the valley, all backed by a soundtrack of live performances and festival vibes.

LAAX is a global freestyle hotspot, renowned for its cutting-edge snowpark, Olympic-standard halfpipe, and progressive terrain. It’s home to a vibrant community of riders, creatives, and innovators who shape the culture year-round. From grassroots sessions to elite competitions, LAAX blends style, airtime, and alpine energy like nowhere else.

LAAX OPEN is more than just a competition, it’s a celebration of style, sound, creativity, and community. From giant jumps to immersive exhibitions, it’s a five-day fusion of sport and culture that continues to define the freestyle scene.

Admission is free, with open access to contests, concerts, and the festival area. For those seeking a deeper experience, special LAAX OPEN tickets offer exclusive vantage points and perks.
