with Gustav Thöni and Ingemar Stenmark

On March 23, South Tyrol marked the 50th anniversary of a major sporting event that brought the region into the international spotlight: the legendary Ski World Cup Final in Val Gardena. This race set new standards and captured attention across Europe for a sport that had rarely been experienced with such intensity—either before or since. At the heart of the event were two of the greatest names in skiing: Gustav Thöni and Ingemar Stenmark, who were battling for the overall World Cup title. For South Tyrol’s athlete of the century, Gustav Thöni, this memorable duel ended in a triumphant victory.

To commemorate this historic race, a roundtable discussion with ski legends Thöni and Stenmark will take place on August 28. The event, held at the Luis Trenker Cultural Center in Ortisei, offers a unique opportunity to look back on the legendary final and relive the highlights of that extraordinary chapter in skiing history.
