The HUAFA SNOW BONSKI Cup – FIS 1st Asian Indoor Alpine Ski Championships officially opened on April 23, 2026, at Qianhai Snow World in Shenzhen, China.

As China’s first indoor alpine skiing competition certified by the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS), the event represents a significant breakthrough for the development of competitive winter sports beyond the country’s traditional winter regions. Elite junior athletes from 12 countries and regions gathered in Shenzhen, delivering a high‑level competition that combined technical excellence with strong international engagement.

The championships were hosted at Qianhai Snow World, China’s first indoor ski centre with professional slopes that meet the stringent standards of FIS. Officially opened on September 29,2025, the venue currently claims the title of world’s largest ski dome and, together with the Guangzhou Indoor Ski Resort, forms the largest indoor skiing cluster in South China. Covering approximately 100,000 square meters, the ski centre features a vertical drop of 83 meters, and five professionally designed ski runs ranging from beginner to advanced levels. Two high‑speed four‑seat chairlifts and five magic carpets support efficient operations, providing a stable, international‑standard environment for training and competition.
