The event is organized by the Norwegian Cross-Country team together with its main sponsor Aker and Oslo district ski clubs. The skiers have decided that profits from Oslo Skishow will go to the foundation active against cancer and its efforts.

The first time Oslo Skishow took place, was on 22nd June last year. More than ten thousand spectators saw the competition of both elite class and a separate business class. Patients and their families of Ullevål University Hospital made also the trip to Aker Brygge. Some of the patients signed diplomas, and handed them over to the winners. The entire Norwegian Cross-Country team ended the day with jumping in the water for a good cause!
