SKILANGLAUF WELTCUP DÜSSELDORF

At the 7^th cross country skiing World Cup in December of 2008 in Düsselfdorf, about 200,000 spectators enjoyed the mixture of professional athletics, show and snow.

The ZENDOME.150M provided lavish space next to the 860 meter long snow course, where one could get information on travel, holiday and congress possibilities in Switzerland, during the event. Just as in 2007, the marketing organisation Swiss Tourism used the geodesic dome of the rental partner Röder for special offers and events in order to interest people in holiday adventures in the alpine country after having watched Olympic and World Cup medallists.

The FIS Skiing World Cup along the banks of the Rhine, which in 2002 had been the first World Cup in a German city, once again was a high class sporting event with participants from 122 countries and 20 nations, a huge media coverage and 1.9 million viewers in front of the TV.
