Midway, UT –  U.S. Biathlon is pleased to announce the domestic events calendar for the 2026-27 season. The upcoming season will once again feature three National Championship events – youth/junior, masters, and senior – with the intent of maximizing the number of athletes competing for a National Championship title, with each race weekend consisting of multiple race opportunities for all age categories. 


For the first time, Ariens Nordic Center in Brillion, WI will play host to the Youth & Junior National Championship and International Team Trials at the end of December 2026. Masters athletes will head to Lake Placid, NY in February 2027 to compete for the Masters National Championship titles. This upcoming season’s National Championships will culminate in Anchorage, AK at Kincaid Park at the end of March 2027, once again bringing together youth, junior, collegiate, para and masters athletes to compete for podium finishes, with senior and collegiate athletes racing for national titles. Senior athlete podiums will also receive prize money. In addition to the competitions in Anchorage, athletes will have the opportunity to head directly up the road to Fairbanks, AK for the U.S. Ski & Snowboard SuperTour Final events the following week, with more prize opportunities and an extended season in a premier location.


“We are excited to announce the 2026-27 domestic events calendar, and continue to provide a variety of race opportunities for our biathlon community throughout the season,” said U.S. Biathlon President & CEO Jack Gierhart. “We are excited to expand the community of clubs that are hosting our top domestic events, and offer a big thank you to Ariens Nordic Center, Mt. Van Hoevenberg, and Kincaid Park for welcoming our top biathletes to their venues this season! We are incredibly grateful for your continued partnership and your dedication to raising the standard of racing and growing the sport of biathlon in the U.S.”
