← Antholz 1975	Vingrom 1977 →

In years when the Olympic Winter Games are held, there are no separate biathlon world championships . However, the Olympic champions in biathlon do not count as world champions . Only in competitions that are not part of the Olympic program are biathlon world champions chosen during these years.

The world champion in the sprint over 10 km was determined in 1976 in Antholz in South Tyrol ( Italy ). The individual competition over 20 km and the relay race were in the official program for the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck .
