DEER VALLEY, Utah (ABC4) — The World Cup Events at the Intermountain Health Freestyle International have been moved out of Utah due to unseasonably warm weather.

“In partnership with USS&S and FIS, we made the difficult, but ultimately the right decision to shift Deer Valley’s annual World Cup competition to other venues. This year’s event was scheduled nearly three weeks earlier than in recent seasons, and sustained warm temperatures, unlike anything we have ever seen before, limited our ability to build the aerial and dual mogul venues to the standards our staff and athletes deserve,” said Todd Bennett, President & COO, Deer Valley Resort.

Bennett said that the environment at Deer Valley this season does not meet the standards of athlete safety, performance, and quality.
The aerials World Cup will be held on Jan. 11-12, 2026, and the moguls and dual moguls World Cup events will take place Jan. 15-16, 2026.
