2026 Winter Olympics

Exciting news is coming....Last year, I wrote about the Southeast Asian sea games held in Thailand. Now, I am going to talk about winter Olympics held in Milan, Italy. It is a multinational multi-sport event currently taking place from 6 to 22 February 2026 at sites across Lombardy and Northeast Italy, with competition in selected events beginning 4 February 2026. A joint bid by Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo was awarded the 2026 Winter Olympics at the 134th IOC Session in June 2019, beating another joint bid made by Stockholm and Åre, Sweden. Milano Cortina 2026 will be the first Olympic Games to be officially co-hosted by two cities; Milan will primarily host the ice events. The remaining events will be hosted in clusters around Cortina and the Valtellina and Fiemme valleys. These will mark the third Winter Olympics, and the fourth Olympics overall, to be hosted by Italy; Cortina d'Ampezzo previously hosted the 1956 Winter Olympics. The 2026 Games will feature the debut of ski mountaineering as a Winter Olympic event and are the first Olympic Games under the IOC presidency of Kirsty Coventry.
