Fan guide #NMNM25

World Cup Schedule

The venue opens approximately four hours before the start of the first race. We recommend arriving early to avoid queues, enjoy a meal, explore the fan zone, and experience the new pre-race program in the Vysočina Arena.

Find the full schedule here.

Side Program

With the opening of the venue, the fan tent near the main entrance will also open. A DJ will play there until late at night. At the stadium, you can look forward to the well-known duo of hosts, Nasty and En.Dru, with Daniel Čech joining them this year. The program will feature fan cameras, quizzes, and various activations. Plenty of entertainment awaits you in the fan zone as well!

Shuttle Bus

You can travel to Nové Město na Moravě for free using the shuttle bus service. Buses will run from Žďár nad Sázavou, the direction of Tři Studně, and from designated parking areas along Road No. 19 and Nová Ves.

Buses will depart approximately every 10 minutes. Return buses will operate immediately after the races until 21:30. Find the exact schedule and maps here.

Parking

Check the interactive map before arriving to see real-time parking availability.

In Žďár nad Sázavou, you can park near the sports hall or the speed skating arena and take a free shuttle bus to NMNM. In case of bad weather, parking will be available along Novoměstská Road. Additional parking areas are provided near Jiříkovice, Nová Ves, and along Road No. 19 from the roundabout in Nové Město. These parking spots must be vacated by 21:00 each day.

Cashless Payments

The Biathlon World Cup in NMNM is cashless! All stalls accept payments via card, phone, or smartwatch, reducing queues so you can fully enjoy the event.

What if you don’t have or don’t want to use a payment card?

Weather

The weather will be pleasant for fans, and don’t worry—we have plenty of snow. However, temperatures will drop in the evening, so dress warmly. Also, wear sturdy footwear—the venue is in good condition, but better safe than sorry!

Visitor Rules

Please review the list of prohibited items before arriving. Leave any potentially dangerous or oversized items, as well as pets, at home.

Fan Shop

Several fan shops are available on-site, offering t-shirts and hoodies from the new Czech Biathlon collection, team hats, and NMNM beanies.

Reusable Cups

We are continuing with the reusable cup system, with a deposit of 100 CZK. After the races, you can return them at designated locations or keep them as a souvenir.

Biathlon Helps

Last year, thanks to your generosity, over 4 million CZK was raised to support the family of commentator Tomáš Lachman, who was left bedridden after a serious injury.

This year, we aim to help Honza from Žďár nad Sázavou secure housing in a barrier-free apartment. You can contribute to his dream home here.
