The competition took place between 8 and 12 February 1998 and featured four events: Men's and Women's giant slalom and halfpipe. This was the first Olympic appearance of snowboarding. Although a separate snowboard federation was established in 1994, the International Ski Federation brought snowboard under its jurisdiction with encouragement from the IOC.
