The City of Annecy Withdraws Its Support for the Biathlon World Cup in Le Grand-Bornand
After deciding to no longer host the "Martin Fourcade Nordic Festival" on its territory, the mayor of Annecy has just announced, in an interview with Libération, that the city will also withdraw its support for the Biathlon World Cup in Le Grand-Bornand for the 2026–2030 period.
I can't imagine Annecy hosting the opening ceremony...
the next mayor elections will take place in March 2026.
