¹ Competition canceled due to problems with power supply

²In Duszniki-Zdrój, Poland, high temperatures prevented the production of enough artificial snow to prepare appropriate trails for the IBU Cup. The competitions were therefore moved to Osrblie, where an IBU Cup had already been held a week earlier.

³Due to the high temperatures and the rain, it was not possible to hold the competitions in Bayerisch Eisenstein, Germany . These were relocated to Martell in South Tyrol, where an IBU Cup was also planned and could take place the following week.

^4thExcessively high temperatures and a lack of snow made it impossible to hold the competitions in Otepää, Estonia . The European Championships were then moved to Minsk, where they took place the previous year and where the IBU Cup final was planned for the following week.

⁵The competition program for the last IBU Cup in Minsk was changed due to rainfall and high temperatures. The competitions have been moved from Thursday, Saturday and Sunday to Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and the sprint start intervals have been shortened from 30 to 20 seconds.
