POSTPONED - the draisienne cup 2025
🚨 BREAKING NEWS: NO DRAISIENNE CUP IN 2025! 🚨
This year, we’ve had to make a tough decision: the Draisienne Cup won’t be returning in 2025. But don’t panic! It’s just a little break before our triumphant return in 2026 🎉.
We know you were already prepping your wildest costumes and getting ready to give it your all for the win, but this year, we need to make room for other adventures… Don’t worry, the wait will be worth it!
In the meantime, get your most creative outfits ready and bring your best competitive spirit, and we’ll see you in 2026 for the 3rd edition (and this time, we’ll be at our best, we promise!).
Thanks for your understanding, and make sure to stay tuned for announcements. The Draisienne Cup will come back stronger than ever!
We can’t wait to see you,
The ESF of Val Thorens 🏆
