2013–14 Biathlon World Cup – World Cup 8

The 2013–14 Biathlon World Cup – World Cup 8 was held in Kontiolahti, Finland, from March 13 until March 16, 2014. A planned mixed relay event was cancelled and replaced with second sprint events for both men and women. The IBU requested the change to keep the number of individual events unchanged after pursuit events were stopped and cancelled due to weather in World Cup 1 in Östersund.
