📝 About Winter Paralympics 2026

Following the Winter Olympics at the same Milan-Cortina venues, the 2026 Winter Paralympics will feature around 700 para-athletes competing in six sports: alpine skiing, biathlon, cross-country skiing, snowboard, wheelchair curling, and ice hockey. The Paralympic movement has grown dramatically since its formalization in 1960, and the Winter Paralympics now attract global television audiences exceeding 2 billion cumulative viewers. Italy's mountainous terrain provides a spectacular backdrop, with Cortina's storied slopes hosting the snow sports. The Games play a vital role in advancing accessibility and inclusion, often leaving lasting infrastructure improvements in host cities.
