The Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics took place from February 6 to 22, with events across northern Italy.

The Host Locations

The Italian Olympic Committee’s venue list identifies competition sites in the Milan area, Cortina d’Ampezzo, Bormio, Livigno, Anterselva, and Val di Fiemme. Milan hosted ice sports; the mountain venues hosted skiing, snowboarding, biathlon, sliding sports, and curling.

Venues and Infrastructure

The competition venues were spread across several host areas. The locations below distinguish ice hockey, alpine skiing, and speed skating.

Ice Sports in Milan

Ice hockey took place at Milano Santa Giulia Ice Hockey Arena and Milano Ice Park, as listed by the Italian Olympic Committee.

Alpine Skiing in Cortina and Bormio

Women’s alpine skiing took place at the Tofane Alpine Skiing Centre in Cortina d’Ampezzo; men’s alpine skiing was held at the Stelvio Ski Centre in Bormio. CONI’s sport guide identifies the two locations.

Speed Skating Excellence

Speed skating took place at Milano Ice Park in Rho, in the Milan metropolitan area.

Sustainability and Innovation

A 2023 Italian Embassy summary described a planning target of 93% existing or temporary facilities. That figure describes the plan at that date; it should not be presented as a final result or as evidence of carbon neutrality. The original bid also proposed greater use of public transport. Claims about the Games’ environmental results require a post-event assessment.

Economic and Cultural Impact

The candidature dossier identified regional development, tourism, improved transport, and the reuse of sports facilities as intended benefits. These were planning goals. Assessing the economic effects requires evidence collected after the Games.
