Milan Cortina 2026: The Sun recounts the Olympics from the approach to the closing of the Games

On the occasion of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, scheduled from 6 to 22 February, the Il Sole 24 ORE Group is deploying a synergic system of information and in-depth analysis that accompanies the Olympic event from the run-up to the conclusion of the Games, through all its media: daily newspaper, digital, Radio 24, TV, Radiocor press agency, podcasts and cultural initiatives.

Already since the beginning of January, Il Sole 24 Ore has launched a series of articles in the run-up to the Olympic event, and on Monday 2 February Il Sole 24 Ore will dedicate two pages to the Olympic cradles: an analysis of the territories that have had the most champions, or rather where the athletes were born. Every day Il Sole 24 Ore will follow the Olympics with a page dedicated to Milan Cortina 2026 from 6 to 22 February. The Olympic story will focus in particular on the economic impact on the territories involved, the environmental fallout, infrastructure and transport, the hospitality system, including hotels and restaurants, companies and production chains involved in the realisation of the event.

An online Super Dossier will be available on ilsole24ore.com, bringing together all the content published in the newspaper, along with original digital insights, offering a complete and up-to-date view of the Games.

With the initiative 'Milano Cortina 2026, a journey through the Olympic venues', Radio 24 takes listeners inside the territories that will host the competitions to recount the realities involved through three reportages on Milan, Valtellina and Cortina. The editorial staff of GR24, through reporters in the area, wants to tell what has been done and what remains to be done, the expectations of local communities, the critical issues still to be overcome, the legacy of the Games for the future. Radio 24's journey started last week from Valtellina, with stops and in-depth reports on Bormio and Livigno: from accessibility to sports infrastructures, from the economic and cultural impact to the transformations of the territory during and after the Games. It continues this week with Milan, the main gateway to the event and the first stress test for accessibility, viability and public order, while next week it will be Cortina's turn. A real narrative countdown that accompanies the audience until 6 February, the day of the opening ceremony followed live with the Inauguration Special from 8 to 10 pm. During the games every day Tutti Convocati will follow the results of the competitions, while from 10 to 12 February Focus economia will be broadcast live with the studio from Cortina. All programmes will have an Olympic theme and special Olympia episodes dedicated to the history of the Winter Games will be broadcast.
