This table replaces an older one on this domain that put ice sports in Nice, swapped Courchevel and Val d'Isère, and sent cross-country and biathlon to Les Saisies. Those rows were wrong.

How to read the two official pages that disagree
The venue map on alpes2030.org lists the places above, and it still prints a footnote that the full programme is subject to IOC and IPC confirmation. The FAQ on the same site still says the map is being finalised and that the sports programme would be confirmed in June 2026. Both of those sentences are behind the news the committee has already published.
On 18 September 2026 the IOC Coordination Commission confirmed the Lyon ice split and the alpine split: downhill and super-G at Courchevel, giant slalom and slalom at Val d'Isère, team combined at Courchevel. On 12 October 2026 the committee said the IPC had validated La Clusaz for para biathlon and para cross-country, Courchevel for para alpine and para snowboard, and Chassieu for wheelchair curling and para ice hockey. The same release puts ski mountaineering and freeride together at Montgenèvre.
The day-by-day timetable is not published. Which freestyle event sits at Serre-Chevalier and which at Montgenèvre, beyond the labels in the table, is not on the map. Nordic combined appears in the older FAQ sport list and does not have a named venue on the current map, so this guide does not assign it.
Places that are easy to get wrong
Nice is not a 2030 competition cluster. Les Saisies, a 1992 Nordic venue, is not on the 2030 map. Chamonix is not a 2030 venue. Valmorel is not one of the seven Les 3 Vallées resorts, and it is not a Games venue. The athlete village for the Lyon cluster is at Oullins-Pierre-Bénite, on the Saulaie site. That is housing for athletes, announced on 4 August 2026, not a spectator hotel.
