The Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games<\/a> are already shaping up to be a historic edition. During 19 days of competition, the world’s athletes will compete in 16 disciplines, grouped into eight main sports, which in turn are divided into three main categories: sliding, ice and snow.<\/p>\n

In total, 116 events will be distributed per medal, the highest number in the history of an Olympic Winter Games.<\/p>\n

The sliding competitions of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games take place on tracks with steep slopes, sharp turns and long straights at high speed.<\/p>\n

The bobsleigh uses a sled that weighs around 200 kilograms and can be manned by one, two or up to four athletes, depending on the event.<\/p>\n

In skeleton and luge, the main difference lies in the athlete’s position:<\/p>\n

In skeleton, you compete upside down and with your head forward.<\/p>\n

While in luge the competitor goes upside down and feet first, reaching extreme speeds.<\/p>\n

Ice sports<\/h2>\n

The ice disciplines of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games are mainly held in indoor venues.<\/p>\n

Curling pits two teams against each other as they seek to place the greatest number of stones in the center of the “house” over ten innings, combining precision and strategy.<\/p>\n

Speed skating takes place on a 400-meter oval track.<\/p>\n

While the short track is played on a hockey-like court, with explosive running and frequent contact.<\/p>\n

Ice hockey, one of the most popular sports on the Olympic program, will once again feature NHL players, who are returning to the Games after a 12-year absence.<\/p>\n

Figure skating combines technique, rhythm and elegance in choreographies evaluated by judges.<\/p>\n

Snow sports<\/h2>\n

Snow competitions are held in mountainous areas with cold weather.<\/p>\n

The biathlon mixes cross-country skiing with sport shooting, forcing athletes to alternate demanding courses with rounds of shooting.<\/p>\n

In ski jumping, normal and giant trampolines of 90 and 120 meters are used, and both distance and style are graded.<\/p>\n

Nordic combined ski jumping and cross-country skiing and, since 1928, has not allowed female participation.<\/p>\n

In Milano-Cortina 2026, men and women will compete for the first time with the same distances in cross-country skiing, ranging from 7.5 to 50 kilometers.<\/p>\n

Alpine skiing takes place on steep slopes with marked gates.<\/p>\n

While acrobatic skiing and snowboarding stand out for their jumps, tricks and turns, including the giant slalom.<\/p>\n

Finally, ski mountaineering will debut as an Olympic discipline, with courses that include ascents and descents where athletes place and remove their skis during the event.<\/p>\n
