Alpine skiing will be divided between Cortina (for the women’s events) and Bormio (for the men) — which are separated by a 5 ½-hour drive. Livigno will host freestyle skiing and snowboarding, biathlon will be in Anterselva, Nordic events will be in Val di Fiemme and ice sports in Milan.

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.

Cortina's sliding center construction is critically behind schedule. The IOC is considering moving events to Lake Placid if Italy's track isn't ready. Environmental concerns and logistical challenges add to the game's complex preparations.

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.

With a year to go to the Winter Olympics, why could sliding events move to the United States, what is skimo and what are Team GB's medal chances in Milan 2026?
