As a result, we are confident the 2023 Alpine World Ski Championships will be a great sporting and popular success that embodies in every way the bid’s slogan: “Together for 2023,” a Courchevel Méribel 2023 statement reads, continuing,
“Hosting the 2023 Alpine World Ski Championships is an opportunity to unite an entire country around skiing, to offer the public a unique event capable of generating a passion for skiing, especially among the younger generations, and to promote France’s mountain areas and mountain resorts.”
