The overall results are based on the aggregate time for all events, as well as bonus seconds awarded on the sprint stage, which are subtracted from the athlete's overall time. As of 2019, bonus seconds are awarded to the 30 skiers that qualify for the quarter-finals.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://assets.fis-ski.com/image/upload/v1574258524/fis-prod/assets/Rules_WC_CC_1920_oct2019_all.pdf |title=RULES FOR THE FIS CROSS-COUNTRY WORLD CUP |work=International Ski Federation (FIS) |accessdate=29 November 2019}}</ref>
 
The final stage of the race is held in a [[Pursuit racing|pursuit]] format, with competitors starting with the gaps they have in the overall classification, so the first skier to reach the finish line is the overall winner.
 
===Prizes===
Prizes and bonuses are awarded for daily placings and final placings at the end of the race. In 2019, the winners received [[Swiss franc|CHF]] 22,500,{{sfn|''Rules for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup''|2019|pp=32}} while each of the stage winners won CHF 5,000.{{sfn|''Rules for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup''|2019|pp=32–33}}
 
==Stages==
===Stage 1: Sprint===
The first stage in the Nordic Opening is a sprint. A sprint consists of two rounds; a qualification round and a final round with a knock-out competition format. The 30 fastest skiers in the qualification round qualify for the final round quarter-finals. In the quarter-, and semi-finals, the skiers compete in heats of six and the two best skiers in each heat are guaranteed progression, while the two fastest non-guaranteed progression times move on as "lucky losers".{{sfn|''Rules for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup''|2019|pp=13}} 12 skiers advance from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals of which six advance to the final. The winners are rewarded, as of 2019, 30 bonus seconds.{{sfn|''Rules for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup''|2019|pp=31–32}} The bonus seconds awarded on the sprint stage are meant to encourage sprinter specialists to go for results in the overall standings.
 
===Stage 2: Interval start===
The second stage in the Nordic Opening is an interval start, or [[time trial]] stage. Skiers are sent out from the start in 30 second intervals. The interval start stage was 5&nbsp;km for women and 10&nbsp;km for men from the first event in 2010, but has since 2017 been a race over 10&nbsp;km for women and 15&nbsp;km for men.
 
===Stage 3: Pursuit===
The third and ultimate stage of the mini-tour is a [[Pursuit racing#Winter sports|pursuit]] with starting intervals equal to the skiers accumulative times in the overall standings; which means that the first skier to cross the finish line is the winner of the Nordic Opening. The stage's length have in every edition been 10&nbsp;km for women and 15&nbsp;km for men. If the overall time differences are big before the last stage, the race jury can decide that the lowest ranked skiers start in a wave start.{{sfn|''Rules for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup''|2018|pp=33}}
