The men's giant slalom competition in the 2016 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup involved eleven events, including the first-ever parallel giant slalom (included in the giant slalom discipline standings) and the season finals in St. Moritz, Switzerland. The newly introduced Parallel giant slalom event at Alta Badia, Italy was a relatively short Giant slalom course that pitted the men against one another in a modified bracket-reduction format from a field of thirty-two qualifying skiers, eventually whittled down to just four final-round racers in a "large final" (for the championship) and a "small final" (for third).

Defending discipline champion Marcel Hirscher of Austria and Alexis Pinturault of France each won four of the races this season and finished second in two others, After Pintauralt's fourth straight victory, in Kranjska Gora, he had closed his deficit to Hirscher to just 91 points with two races remaining.[1] However, Hirscher came back to win the giant slalom the next day on the same course, locking up the season championship with a 111-point lead over Pinturault with just one race remaining.[2] This was Hirscher's third title in this discipline on his way to his fifth straight overall World Cup championship.[2]
