Event info

The Spring Meeting - Friuli Venezia Giulia Trophy is a FAI 2 competition which takes place in a flight zone well known by European pilots and where, in 2017, the first edition of this important competition took place.
It is also part of the big flying area which will host the XXII Hang Gliding World Championship.

The flight area is mainly in the foothill but, depending on weather conditions, it is possible to fly also in the Alps and in the flatland. There are different takeoffs; two of them are in Slovenia and can be chosen in case of changeable weather.

Besides the competition, there will be an Expo area next to the landing field and many different activities will be organized for families, friends and visitors.
