Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz Countdown

Just 16 days until the start of 2026 edition

Over 23 – 25 January 2026, The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz will return to the iconic frozen lake for another world-class tournament. The 41st edition sees two new team sponsors, Investec and Standing Rock, alongside U.S. Polo Assn., making its debut as the tournament’s official apparel partner. Six teams will compete on the frozen lake and the draw has been completed so the games for the first day of action have been set as: Flexjet vs Mackage, St. Moritz vs Azerbaijan and Standing Rock vs Investec. After Day 1’s matches, all six teams will be ranked with the three winners moving straight into the Semi Finals, and the best-performing losing team (fourth place overall) also securing a Semi Final spot. 
The popularity of this event goes from strength to strength with the VIP packages already sold out and a waiting list for the gala evening on Saturday at Badrutt's Palace Hotel – 25,000 guests are expected to attend this year. New for 2026, an admission fee of CHF 20 will apply for access to the public area on Saturday and Sunday. Admission on Friday will remain free, and children and young people under the age of 16 will continue to enjoy free entry on all days. Further information and tickets are available here.
