All set to start a new Marcialonga! From tomorrow until Sunday, Italy's most popular ski-marathon will get on track in Val di Fiemme and Val di Fassa at the foot of stunning Dolomites in the North-Eastern part of the country. And the very first act will see the youngest skiers (up to 6 years) enjoy themselves in Predazzo town centre during the first ever Marcialonga Baby, tomorrow afternoon from 4pm.
The town of Cavalese (Verdi Square) will warmly welcome all the guests and locals from 5pm with live music, food and wine tastings and a DJ set, ahead of the official opening ceremony at 6pm in Ziano di Fiemme, a few kilometers away from Cavalese.
A multimedia show named 'Scivolando sul Novecento' (literally 'Gliding on the XX century') will narrate how cross country skiing changed and improved through the decades while witnessing cultural and historical changes in Italy as well as in many other countries. The celebrations will continue in Molina di Fiemme from 8pm onwards with music and a torchlight parade.
Flipping through the 2016 Marcialonga programme, four events will take place on Saturday, the vintage Marcialonga Story event (9.30am), the Marcialonga Stars for charity (1pm), the Minimarcialonga for kids (2pm) and the Marcialonga Young for young categories (2.30pm). The latter will continue on Sunday morning as well (8.45am), while from 7.50am onwards, around 8.000 XC skiing lovers and champions from all over the world will jump on the snow for the 43rd Marcialonga along a 70k-long track (plus the 45k-long one, called 'Light version') perfectly set.
The entire race will be broadcast on RAI Sport 1 channel or www.rai.it and the Visma Ski Classics website
