Description:

All three Nordic combined events consist of a ski jumping competition and a cross-country skiing race. For the individual Gundersen event, ski jumping takes place on the normal hill (90 metres). For the team and the sprint events, ski jumping takes place on the large hill (120m). The cross-country portion of the individual Gundersen event has a 15km race, the sprint event has a 7.5km race, and the team event has a 4x5km relay.

Each nation can enter up to four competitors, who do not need to be the same in the individual and team competitions. There is no Nordic combined event for women.
