Norwegian Halvor Egner Granerud and Slovenian Nika Križnar were the defending overall champions from the 2020–21 season.
The 1st edition of new year's "Silvester Tournament" (women's version of Four Hills Tournament) was held with two K.O. events from 31 December to 1 January in Ljubno, Slovenia.[3] The "Alpenkrone" (Crown of the Alps) tournament - consisting of one competition in Ramsau and two in Hinzenbach - also makes its debut in the women's competition.[4]
As of this season, the mixed competition on the large hill is making its debut.
Fatih Arda İpcioğlu became the first Turkish ski jumper in history of World Cup who managed to qualify to the main competition at the season opener in Nizhni Tagil.[5] He also became the first representative of Turkey to qualify for a competition at the Four Hills Tournament and the first to score World Cup points.
Karl Geiger became the third ski jumper in history to win the final of the previous season and the opening of a new one (after Espen Bredesen in 1992–93 and 1993–94 and Matti Hautamäki in 2002–03 and 2003–04).[6]
After his 12th win in an individual competition in Nizhni Tagil, Halvor Egner Granerud has the most wins of any Norwegian in the World Cup ever.[7] The Norwegian is also the first jumper in World Cup history who could not qualify for two consecutive competitions (Ruka) after winning a competition (Nizhny Tagil).[8]
Marita Kramer won the individual competition on November 26 with the biggest lead over the second athlete (Ema Klinec) in the history of the FIS Women's' World Cup with 41,7 points.[9]
For the first time since the 1983–84 season, six different athletes won the first six men's individual competitions.[10]
After the competition in Innsbruck was cancelled, for the second time in the 70-year history of the Four Hills Tournament will be held on three hills. The previous situation was in the 2007–08 season.[11]
For the first time ever, the Raw Air tournament consists of more competitions for women than for men.
On 1 March 2022, following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, FIS decided to exclude athletes from Russia and Belarus from FIS competitions, with an immediate effect.[12]
