History
Gustav Eriksson's adventure in Dalarna took place during the winter of 1520–21. On June 6, 1523 he was elected King of Sweden – as Gustav Vasa. The first Vasaloppet took place in 1922. This year will see the 99th Vasaloppet, which is also the 27th with a special competition class for women (started in 1997). Three races have been cancelled: 1932, 1934 and 1990. Since 1948 the race has always run on the first Sunday of March, except in 2015 when the race ran on the second Sunday because of the World Ski Championships in Falun.

The first live TV broadcast of Vasaloppet took place in 1966. This will be the 46th time that Vasaloppet (in part or in its entirety) is transmitted live, and it's the 41st time that the Vasaloppet start is broadcast live on television. 1973 was the first year with a live broadcast in colour. Since 1992 Vasaloppet has been shown live every year.

Since 1922 a total of 612,472 Vasaloppet skiers have completed the 90-kilometre Vasaloppet; if we put together all 98 races, participants have skied a distance equal to 1,375 round the world trips or 71 journeys to the moon and back. (Combining winter and summer races, there had been 1,735,888 finishes before this year's Winter Week.)

The average finishing time for the 612,472 participants can be counted as 7.58.17 (average) or 7.54.00 (median).

The average skier 2022
In Vasaloppet 2023, the average age is 42.2 and the average participant has skied Vasaloppet 3.5 times before.

Of the registered Vasaloppet skiers in 2023, 57 percent have skied Vasaloppet before. So 43 percent are skiing Vasaloppet for the first time. 18.6 percent of the registered participants in the track on Sunday are women.

Awards
The awards ceremony for Vasaloppet 2023 takes place at 15:00 on stage at the Vasaloppet finish line. Training scholarships are awarded to the top 15 men and top 15 women. The prize sum is the same in the men's and women's class.

The first prize (for both men and women) is a gold medal, a green salal leaf garland, a big red Dalecarlian horse and a cheque of 99,000 SEK, as this is the 99th race. In addition, the victors receive the sponsors' honorary award, a brass cast ship's bell, awarded this year by Volvo. The men's class winner will also get the Kranskulla honorary award, an embroidered pillow. (The Kransmas honorary award was given at Tjejvasan.)

There are seven sprint prizes for both men and women: 10,000 SEK in Evertsberg (The Hill Prize) and 5,000 SEK at the six other checkpoints; Smågan, Mångsbodarna, Risberg, Oxberg, Hökberg and Eldris. The total prize sum for Vasaloppet 2023 is 618,000 SEK. If a participant sets a new record time in the men's or women's class of Vasaloppet they will also be awarded a 50,000 SEK record bonus. Record time women: 3:56:06 (Astrid Öyre Slind, 2022). Record time men: 3:28:18 (Tord Asle Gjerdalen, 2021).

Placement medals – gold, silver and bronze – are awarded to those who come first, second and third. Participants who finish within the winning time plus 50 percent are awarded the Vasaloppet achievement medal. Everyone who completes Vasaloppet gets a diploma and a participation medal.

The first man and woman to reach Mångsbodarna in 2023 will get the first number bibs for the 100th Vasaloppet 2024, with the number 100.

Ski Classics has a "climb prize" at the course's highest point, 528 metres above sea level, three kilometres after the start. The first seven men and women to reach this height get points in the Climb Trophy cup. Ski Classics also has sprint prizes for Mångsbodarna and Evertsberg. The first seven men and women to reach those checkpoints get points in the Sprint Trophy cup.

Grand Slam
For the 2020/21 season, Ski Classics launched "The Grand Classics" which includes the four big races Marcialonga in Italy, Jizerska50 in the Czech Republic, Vasaloppet in Sweden and Birkebeinerrennet in Norway. If a skier wins all four in one and the same season, they make a Grand Slam and win 100,000 Euros.

So far in history, no skier has managed to win all four races during the same season, not since Ski Classics started nor before. The four races are also valued higher in Ski Classics: Winners of these four races get 300 points in the overall cup, compared to 200 points for other races.

Kranskulla and Kransmas
This year's Kranskulla is Alice Larsson from Sälens IF (Kranskulla number 99) and Kransmas is Albin Gezelius from IFK Mora (Kranskulla number 35).

Number 103 pays tribute to Margit Nordin
100 years ago, on March 4, 1923, Margit Nordin was the first woman to ski Vasaloppet. After that, women were not allowed to participate until Öppet Spår launched in 1979, and they weren't allowed in Vasaloppet until 1981. The Facebook group "VasanFörMargit" (Vasa for Margit) started as a private initiative to get more women to ski Vasaloppet and the group has, among other things, printed cloth badges with Margit Nordin's start number 103, to be worn – regardless of your gender – as a tribute to the first woman in Vasaloppet. Around 300 badges have been distributed and many people have produced their own variants which will be seen on participants on the track this Sunday.

In the fall of 2022, Vasaloppet started "More women on the track", a project focused on actively attracting more women to participate in the various races during Vasaloppet's Winter Week and Summer Week.

Time penalty
If a participant is found to have littered in or along the Vasaloppet course (which is a nature reserve) then he or she will receive a time penalty of 15 minutes. This rule was introduced in 2017. Disposing of litter is permitted in three different ways: In the bins at the Vasaloppet checkpoints; In the marked littering zones between each Vasaloppet checkpoint; Where you as a participant know that a team leader or associate will pick up what you throw. For elite skiers Vasaloppet holds special dialogue, requiring that each team takes responsibility for, and picks up, any of their waste that is thrown along the track.

Weather
The coldest temperature at a Vasaloppet start in Sälen was -30 degrees Celsius, measured in 1935 and 1987. The warmest starting temperature, +4.5 degrees Celsius, was in 2015. Over the 98 years that Vasaloppet has run, it's been below zero at the start 85 times.

Vasaloppet's Summer Week 2023
Vasaloppet doesn't just have a Winter Week. Since 2009 there's also a Vasaloppet Summer Week with twelve mountain bike and running races, such as Cykelvasan 90 and Ultravasan 90. See the complete list of races below.

Vasaloppstrippeln x3
Vasaloppstrippeln means completing three different types of Vasaloppet during one and the same calendar year. The participant skis in Vasaloppet's Winter Week and runs and bikes the same distance in Vasaloppet's Summer Week in August. The distances are 90, 45 or 30 kilometres.
