FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2025

The 44th FIS Nordic World Ski Championships was held from 26 February to 9 March 2025 in Trondheim, Norway.
The location was scheduled to be decided in May 2020 during the 52nd FIS Congress in Pattaya, Thailand, but that was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The vote instead took place during a video conference on 3 October 2020. Trondheim won the bid to host the event unanimously as there were no opposing bids submitted. This was the second time the city is hosting the Championships, having hosted it in 1997. The city had also submitted a bid for 2023, but lost out to Planica, Slovenia. It was the sixth time for Norway to host the Championships.
The Granåsen Ski Centre, which was also used during Trondheim's hosting of the 1997 Championships, was the main venue where the competitions were held.
For the first time in the history of the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, all cross-country events were held at the same distance for both men and women. This was approved by the FIS Council during their spring meeting ahead of the 54th Congress. Equal distances for both men and women have already been used starting with the 2023–24 World Cup.
In the Nordic combined, the normal hill + 10 kilometre Gundersen event was dropped in favour of the normal hill + 7.5 kilometre compact event. The mass start + normal hill event made its return as part of the women's program with a distance of 5 km.
In addition, the Para-sprint competitions for men and women was a part of the Championships' program this year, as opposed to being part of the World Para Nordic Skiing Championships.

On 8 March, Johann André Forfang and Marius Lindvik were disqualified after an inspector from FIS inspected their ski jumping suits while the competition was ongoing. Earlier (7 March), media had published a video clip, that indicated that the Norwegian team were manipulating at least one ski jumping suit.
In regard to jumpsuits being manipulated after being approved: On 9 March, media said that "No one is any longer contesting what the video [from 7 March] is showing; Norway is intentionally manipulating jumpsuits that have already been approved for world championship events". Later that day, FIS said that all the Norwegian medals from the ski jumping events would be investigated. Later that day, Jan-Erik Aalbu, chief of ski jumping of the Norwegian Ski Federation, admitted that the Norwegian team had been cheating.
On 10 March, the coach of the Norwegian ski jumping team, Magnus Brevig, was suspended; he said (on 10 March), that there were three of the team's staff, who made the decision to manipulate the ski jumping suits. A tailor on the team, was also suspended. On 11 March, the assistant coach, Thomas Lobben, was suspended.
The two disqualified ski jumpers have said that they did not know anything about the manipulated suits. On 12 March, those two ski jumpers were temporarily suspended from competitions by FIS.
On 13 March, Toyota Norway pulled out of their sponsorship of the ski jumping team. Later that day three more ski jumpers got temporary suspensions from FIS: Robin Pedersen, Kristoffer Eriksen Sundal and Robert Johansson.
As of April 2025, there are no more competitions for the Norwegian jumpers this season; FIS has ended suspension of the ski jumpers mentioned above.
