The 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics feature venues spread across the city of Milan and the mountains of Northern Italy, plus two iconic landmarks for Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

Next year’s Olympics might be called the Milan Cortina Games but it will actually be staged across a large swath of northern Italy spread over five different venue clusters.

Olympic curling champion Eve Muirhead believes Milan-Cortina 2026 will be a mix of the Winter Games’ past and future as it combines alpine resort settings with a wide geographic spread of existing venues to keep costs down.
