The FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2021 are scheduled for 9–21 February in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.[1] On May 2020, the Italian Winter Sports Federation (FISI) and the event organizing committee asked the International Ski Federation (FIS) to postpone the event till 2022. FIS will discuss the proposal on 1 July 2020.[2]

The host city was selected at the FIS Congress in Cancún, Mexico, on 10 June 2016. Cortina d'Ampezzo was the only applicant, and had been a finalist for the previous two championships.

Cortina previously hosted the world championships in 1932 and 1956 as part of the 1956 Winter Olympics and has held numerous World Cup events; the Tofane is a regular stop for women's speed events in January.
