(Milan) Ticket prices for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina will range from 30 euros ($44.75) for matches in the preliminary stage of the men’s and women’s hockey tournaments to almost 3,000 euros ( $4,474.45) for the best seats during the closing ceremony which will take place at the Verona Arena, one of the largest amphitheaters in Italy with a capacity of almost 30,000 people.
Unsurprisingly, tickets for the final of the men’s hockey tournament will be the most expensive, ranging between $671.17 and $2,088.07.
The organizing committee announced Thursday that more than 20% of tickets for the 2026 Winter Games will be available for less than $60, and more than half of them will cost less than $150.
Anyone interested should register on the official ticketing platform, in order to be eligible for the draw which will distribute specific time slots for the purchase of tickets in the first phase of sale.
Ticket prices for the 2026 Paralympic Winter Games will start at $14.91 for children under 14, and more than 200,000 tickets – about 90% of the total – will be available for less than $60.
The 2026 Winter Games will take place across northern Italy. The ice events will take place in Milan, the alpine skiing in Bormio and Cortina, the freestyle skiing and snowboarding in Livigno, the Nordic skiing in Val di Fiemme and the biathlon in Anterselva.
It is still unclear whether the Cortina sliding center will be completed on time or whether the bobsleigh, luge and skeleton events will have to be moved to a track in Austria (Igls), Switzerland (St. Moritz) or the state from New York (Lake Placid).
