Milan-Cortina 2026: The Olympic Games are coming to the Fiemme Valley

In a few weeks, the Fiemme Valley will experience a unique moment:

The Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics are just around the corner, and Cavalese, together with its neighbouring towns, will become one of the most important sporting events in the world.

For those who live in the valley every day – and for those who choose it as a holiday destination – the Olympic Games are not just about competitions and medals, but a unique opportunity to meet, share stories and further develop the region.

An event that speaks the language of the mountains

Sport has always been part of the local culture in the Fiemme Valley.

During the Games, the connection that our valley has always had with winter sports will become even stronger: events, village festivals, music and shared moments will create an authentic and exciting Olympic atmosphere that will extend beyond the sports facilities.

Tourism and the economy: a concrete opportunity

The Olympic Games attract a great deal of international attention. For the Fiemme Valley, this means new visitors, work for local businesses and a positive boost for tourism, not only during the Olympic winter but also in the years that follow, creating added value that will remain even after the spotlight has faded.

The Olympic Games and sustainability: a big challenge

Organising a major event in the mountains comes with responsibility.

In Val di Fiemme, the decision was made to rely on existing infrastructure, more efficient mobility and environmental awareness in order to reduce the impact on the sensitive ecosystem of the Alps.

The Olympic Games are thus also an opportunity to reflect on more conscious tourism that respects nature and preserves the beauty of the Dolomites for the future.

A heritage that goes beyond the Games

Milan-Cortina 2026 will not only be a major sporting event, but also an important turning point for the valley.

It will be an opportunity to improve services, strengthen local identity and raise awareness of Val di Fiemme among those who may return after the Olympics in search of authenticity, tranquillity and nature.

At the Hotel Azalea, we are ready to experience this special moment together with our guests, with the same spirit as always: hospitality, simplicity and love for our territory!
