The eyes of the world are on Northern Italy as it hosts the 2026 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.
The Hubs: While Milan serves as the urban heart (hosting the opening ceremony at the San Siro), the Dolomites—specifically Cortina d’Ampezzo—will be the stage for alpine skiing and snow sports.
Travel Tip: Expect heavy crowds and premium pricing in the Lombardy and Veneto regions during February. However, the infrastructure upgrades, including improved high-speed rail links and “green” Olympic venues, will benefit travelers long after the torch goes out.
