The Verbier Polo Cup is taking place between Jan. 30 and Feb. 1, on the tennis court of the Sport Centre. Spectators have free entrance to the on-snow tournament with teams from England, Argentina, France, and Switzerland.
The fifth and final stage of the Freeride World Tour 2009 is being held in Verbier, as part of the 14th edition of the Nissan Xtreme Verbier.
