The men's slalom in the 2025 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to consist of twelve events, including the discipline final. The discipline is scheduled to open the season in Levi, Finland, the first time that the men have raced there since before the pandemic (November 2019). Interestingly, with the return from retirement of Marcel Hirscher and Lucas Braathen, all of the discipline champions for the past 12 years are competing: Hirscher (6 discipline titles: 2013-15, 2017-19), Henrik Kristoffersen of Norway (3 titles: 2016, 2020, 2022), Marco Schwarz of Austria (1 title, 2021, who is out for the season with an injury suffered in September), Braathen (1 title, 2023), and defending champion Manuel Feller of Austria (1 title, 2024).
The season will be interrupted for the Alpine Skiing World Championships, this time in Saalbach, Austria during 4-16 February 2025.[1] The championship in men's slalom is scheduled as the last skiing event, on Sunday, 16 February.
