Hey everyone! Are you excited about the 2026 Winter Games? πβ·οΈ Well, we have some awesome news! Andrea Varnier, the CEO of the Milano Cortina 2026 organizing committee, says that the venues are almost ready! ποΈβ€οΈ
The test events have been super successful so far, which means everything is on track for an amazing Games experience. π
Andrea Varnier, who also worked on the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, says that one big difference this time is technology, especially cyber security. π» They’ve invested a lot to make sure everything is safe and secure. π
