What’s Next for the Olympics?
When the Tokyo Olympic flame is extinguished, the world will turn its attention to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina, Italy, set to kick off on February 6, 2026. This edition of the Winter Games promises to be the most extensive ever, with venues sprawled across nearly 10,000 square miles in northern Italy.
In the meantime, mark your calendars for the 2028 Summer Olympics, which will be hosted by Los Angeles, marking the return of the Summer Games to the United States after more than a decade. The last time the U.S. hosted the Summer Olympics was in 1996 in Atlanta, Georgia.
