who is hosting the winter olympics in 2026
2026 Winter Olympics The 2026 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XXV Olympic Winter Games, is an international multi-sport event to be organised in a city designated by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The host city will be selected at the 134th IOC Session in September 2019 in Milan, Italy. However, Sion, Switzerland, which is a possible contender for the 2026 race, is set to hold a possibly nationwide referendum on 10 June 2018. If Sion is defeated in the referendum, the 134th IOC Session in September 2019 will be moved to the IOC headquarters of Lausanne, Switzerland, allowing the Italian city of Turin to step in as an official candidate for 2026.
