For the 2026 candidature process, the IOC will take a more proactive role in assisting and supporting cities considering a candidature. The IOC will customize its approach to the needs of the cities in order for them to develop the best value proposition. These measures will lead to a simplified process for the cities, with reduced costs. The Invitation Phase has been extended to one year, starting 13 September 2017, and the Candidature Phase has been shortened to one year, starting from 2018 to 2019. The new approach was approved at the Extraordinary IOC Session on 11 -- 12 July 2017. These measures were enacted after no city had bid on the Games well into 2017.

The men 's downhill requires at least 700 meters altitude difference along around 3 kilometers length. A certain spectator capacity is required and often this is 10,000 but varies by sport. Furthermore, certain VIP areas are required at every venue. Potential bids Cities part of the dialogue stage The following four cities are participating in the dialogue stage and therefore joined the PyeongChang 2018 Observer Programme. Sion, Switzerland Sapporo, Japan Stockholm, Sweden Calgary, Canada Other cities can join the dialogue stage until the deadline to enter the Candidature Process on 31 March 2018. Comprehensive list of potential bids The following cities are actively exploring a potential bid for the 2026 Winter Olympic Games : Graz and Schladming, Austria After the failed public vote in Innsbruck and Tyrol for hosting the 2026 Olympic Games, the Styrian cities of Graz and Schladming, which previously hosted the 2017 Special Olympics World Winter Games, are planning on bidding to host the games as an initiative called `` Austria 2026 ''. Predominantly, existing venues would be used. While Graz would host indoor ice events ( figure skating, short track, curling ), Schladming would be the venue for alpine skiing. Other venues might include Kreischberg ( freestyle skiing and snowboard ), Bischofshofen and Ramsau am Dachstein ( ski jumping, cross country skiing, nordic combined ), and Hochfilzen ( biathlon ). Austrian cities like Vienna, Linz, Klagenfurt or Kapfenberg could host the ice hockey tournament. The possibility of some events taking place in Germany ( speed skating in Inzell and luge, bobsleigh, and skeleton in Schönau am Königssee ) is also under consideration. The potential bid is very controversial in Austria, as the mayors of Graz and Schladming started to plan the bid without informing the national government or the state government. Anton Lang, state treasurer of Styria, has already announced that the state has no financial leeway for olympic games. Heinz Christian Strache, Austrias federal minister for sports, also has doubts : After the public vote against a bid in Innsbruck, he says, before Graz and Schladming bid for the olympic games, they need to find out if the population even wants the event to take place in Austria. Erzurum, Turkey Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced the country was considering a bid to host the 2026 Winter Olympics in the eastern provinces of Erzurum, Erzincan and Kars. Although Istanbul had made several attempts to host the Summer Olympics and lost to Sydney for 2000, Beijing for 2008 and Tokyo for 2020, it would be Turkey 's first bid for the Winter Games. Erzurum previously hosted the 2011 Winter Universiade and the 2017 European Youth Winter Olympic Festival. Sion, Switzerland The Swiss Olympic Association made a general decision about a bid during the Sportparlament on 11 March 2016. Five candidates handed their letters of intent to the Association before the deadline of 31 May 2016. The candidates had until 15 December 2016 to forward their bid files to the Swiss Olympic Association. A candidate city has to be confirmed by the Association by 7 March 2017. Of the original five candidates, Central Switzerland withdrew, at least temporarily, because Lucerne was awarded the 2021 Winter Universiade. Two other proposals that included venues throughout Switzerland joined forces with the Western Switzerland bid. The bid Graubünden and Partners was rejected during a public referendum on 12 February 2017. The danger of the same destiny is very likely as the polls say 64 percent against 36 percent opposition in February 2018, 4 months before referendum. This could lead to the Games once again held out of Western Europe since the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin as Stockholm has support problems in local politics. At the same time as these two European countries have troubles, Calgary are in the same situation as the European counterparts which could lead the games to Sapporo, Japan, which would be the third consecutive Asian Winter Olympics, or in a no - bid situation straight election of Salt Lake City with venues ready to use. Sion was chosen against Montreux to be host city of the Western Switzerland Olympic bid after Lausanne and Crans - Montana withdrew. The bid includes venues within a square connecting the cities of Lausanne, Martigny, Visp and Bern. Sion bid to host the 1976 Winter Olympics, 2002 Winter Olympics and 2006 Winter Olympics, but both lost to Denver ( Innsbruck ), Salt Lake City and Turin respectively. The Canton of Valais is set to hold a referendum on 10 June 2018 to decide the fate of the 2026 Winter Games bid. Sapporo, Japan Representatives from Sapporo in Japan, host of the 1972 Winter Games, stated that the city is considering a bid for the 2026 or 2030 Winter Olympics. The city predicts it may cost as much as 456.5 billion yen ( $4.3 billion ) to host the games and is planning to have 90 percent of the facilities within half an hour of the Olympic village, according to a report published 12 May 2016. The Alpen course would be in Niseko, the world 's second - snowiest resort, while the village would be next to Sapporo Dome. The plans were presented to the Japanese Olympic Committee on 8 November 2016. On 15 November 2017, Sapporo got approval from the JOC. ( If Sapporo is awarded the 2026 Games, it will mark the first time East Asia will hold three straight Winter Olympics, after Korea in 2018 and China in 2022 ; Tokyo is also scheduled to host the 2020 Summer Olympics. ) Stockholm, Sweden Sweden withdrew from the 2022 bid, but the Swedish NOC president claimed in December 2014 that Sweden could apply again, given that the IOC wants to reduce the cost of the Games for organisers, which was the problem with the 2022 bid. The Swedish Olympic Committee agreed to conduct a feasibility study on a potential bid for the 2026 Olympic Games. During the Semi Final Allocation Draw for the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 in Kiev, Ukraine, on 31 January, it was announced by Eva - Louise Erlandsson Slorach, President of the City Council in Stockholm, that the host city of the 1912 Summer Olympics would seek to host the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. On 26 April 2017, the Swedish Social Democratic party announced that Stockholm will not bid for the 2026 games. Despite this the Swedish Olympic Committee has continued working on the application. While there has been no official commitment from the political parties the SOC keeps hoping to convince the city of Stockholm and other involved municipalities. Thus the `` revival '' of the bid to host the winter games. The alpine events are planned to be held in Åre, 520 km ( 320 mi ) away, at least 3 hours travel time by air and car. Calgary, Canada Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi confirmed on 16 September 2015, that a group of community leaders are working on a bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Calgary was host of the 1988 Winter Olympics. In June 2016, Calgary City Council approved spending up to $5 million on a 15 - month bid exploration phase. It has also been proposed that Calgary would either build new centres and arenas, for example the controversial CalgaryNEXT arena which is a field house, multi-purpose arena, hockey arena and football stadium all in one planned for the Downtown / Sunalta neighbourhood or repurpose the arenas / event stages used for the 1988 Winter Olympics. John Furlong, CEO of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver is running a group for the Canadian Olympic Committee to help Calgary. On 20 November 2017, Calgary 's city council officially voted to approve the additional funding of $2 million to support the bid, only if the federal and provincial governments also support the bid before January 2018. In February 2018, Nenshi said a decision whether or not to bid would be made by summer 2018. Previously interested in bidding The following cities explored the possibility of bidding at some point, but decided not to bid or have some uncertainties according to media : Lillehammer, Norway On 6 April 2017, it was announced that Lillehammer was considering a bid for the Winter Olympics in 2026 or 2030. Lillehammer was host of the 1994 Winter Olympics and the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics. A feasibility report was published in March. It could share an Olympic bid with Norwegian cities like Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger and Trondheim, according to Norwegian media. However, no further information was released about the bid as the Norwegian Olympic and Paralympic Committee and Confederation of Sports selected the southern Norwegian county of Telemark. Telemark, Norway On 31 Oct 2017, it was announced at a press conference at the top of Mount Gausta, that the southern Norwegian county of Telemark, known as the cradle of modern skiing, wanted to host the 2026 Olympics, with a base in the twin UNESCO World Heritage towns Rjukan and Notodden in the North of Telemark, and further fairly spread venues. They also wished Telemark skiing to be added to the games. The Norwegian national sports federation turned this location down on 25 January 2018, without suggesting any other Norwegian site. Almaty, Kazakhstan Almaty was reportedly considering a bid to host the 2026 Winter Games after narrowly losing to Beijing in its bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics. However, Bauyrzhan Baibek, Mayor of Almaty, denied the rumors of Almaty bidding to host the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. Innsbruck, Austria On 17 February 2016, the `` Tiroler Tageszeitung '' wrote in an article that IOC president Thomas Bach asked the alpine city for an application for the 2026 Winter Olympics. He said that an event such as this would not only be celebrated, but lived. If applying, the host of the 1964 Winter Olympics, the 1976 Winter Olympics and the 2012 Winter Youth Olympics would reuse many of the sites used in the past games. In October 2016, the Austrian Olympic Committee ( ÖOC ) agreed to carry out a feasibility study into whether they should launch a bid. On 6 December 2016, the ÖOC commissioned a working group including renowned companies to conduct a feasibility study with results published on 22 June 2017. The study proposes to use facilities at venues across all of Tyrol : Innsbruck, Igls, Kühtai, St. Anton am Arlberg, Hochfilzen, and Seefeld. The two ice hockey venues were to be determined, as was the possibility of using the existing speed skating rink in Inzell in Germany. 2026 marks the 50th anniversary of Innsbruck 's 1976 Winter Olympics. Innsbruck could be the first city to host the Winter Olympics three times. A referendum vote in Innsbruck was set for 15 October 2017 to decide whether to proceed with the bid. In the referendum, the bid was defeated as 53 percent voted against it. This was the third successive defeat of an Olympic bid by a vote after Krakow and Munich 2022 and Hamburg 2024, while Budapest and Rome 2024 withdrew to avoid a referendum. Milan, Italy The president of the Italian National Olympic Committee ( CONI ), Giovanni Malagò, proposed in June 2017 a bid for Milan to host the 2026 Winter Olympics. Malagò considered Milan together with Valtellina suitable. Milan was planned to host ice sports while Bormio, Santa Caterina di Valfurva and Livigno are already today well - known destinations for snow sports, from Alpine skiing to snowboarding, cross-country skiing to biathlon. However, there has currently been no further information on Milan 's 2026 bid. Milan will also host the 134th IOC Session in 2019, during which the host city of the 2026 Winter Olympics will be awarded. Because of this, IOC regulations state that no bid from a country or city is allowed when the IOC session is in the same country or the same city. Aosta, Italy A public debate is promoted by a citizens ' committee in the Italian region of Mont Blanc, in order to promote Aosta as the host of the Winter Olympics in 2026 or later. The idea was to build support among the citizens and promote the Games from the bottom up, to build a consensus supporting the effort. The Aosta Valley region 's economy is mainly based on winter sports. Starting from 1970s the main winter resorts hosted world events : Courmayeur hosted a round of the 1977 Alpine Skiing World Cup, Cervinia a round of the 1978 Alpine Skiing World Cup, La Thuile a round of the 2016 Alpine Skiing World Cup and bobsleigh 's FIBT World Championships 1971, Cogne a round of the 1984 -- 85 FIS Cross-Country World Cup and a round of 2006 -- 07 FIS Cross-Country World Cup and Fénis hosted in the 1986 FIL World Luge Natural Track Championships. In 1991, the city made a bid for the 1998 Winter Olympics but lost to Nagano, so a 2026 bid would be the city 's second attempt. In 1993 Aosta hosted the first edition of the winter European Youth Olympic Festival and in 2010 it hosted the first edition of the Winet Military World Games. The Aosta bid was cancelled when was announced that the city of Milan will be the host city of the 134th IOC Session to decide the host city, and IOC regulations state that no bid from a country is allowed when the IOC session is in the same country. Graubünden The canton of Graubünden released a concept named Graubünden and Partners including potential venues without referring to a dedicated host city. The map of the project presented on 16 December 2016 announced St. Moritz to be host city. Zurich refused even before to be host city of the bid. Voters in the area rejected the bid by more than 60 percent during a public referendum on 12 February 2017. Graubünden failed public referendums to host the 1980 Winter Olympics and the 2022 Winter Olympics as well. Barcelona, Spain Further information : Plans for Winter Olympics held in Barcelona Barcelona ( the host city of the 1992 Summer Olympics ) had waged a bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics, but, according to mayor Xavier Trias, was not considered ready yet. Instead, one `` must concentrate its efforts and commitment to work to reach the Olympic target by 2026 ''. On 17 June 2015 Barcelona announced it will not be bidding to host the 2026 Olympic Winter Games. Mayor Ada Colau who won the municipal elections on 24 May decided that this is not a priority project for the city. On 24 July, the city council acorded to create a specific commission about the social and economic impact of the bid. On 16 March 2017 Barcelona 's City Hall government has taken itself out of the running to host the 2026 Winter Olympics Games. According to Barcelona 's deputy mayor, Jordi Collboni, the decision responded `` to the current social and economic circumstances not only in Barcelona but in the whole country ''. Of note, it would have been the second city to host both the Summer and the Winter Olympics after Beijing. Dresden -- ( Berlin ), Germany The mayor of Altenberg, Thomas Kirsten, brought Dresden up for discussion in November 2013, after the Bavarians rejected a Munich bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics. But the German Olympic Sports Confederation decided not to consider a bid since the lack of alpine skiing resorts would have made it necessary to use Czech venues. Auckland and Queenstown, New Zealand A `` pre-feasibility '' report was published in May 2015 stating that a joint Winter Olympics Games with Australia would be feasible for 2026. Bruce McGechan, in a news release on 26 June 2015, said that the New Zealand Olympic Committee had considered the report but had decided not to ask the New Zealand Government to do a full feasibility study of hosting the 2026 Olympic Winter Games. Therefore the Olympic Winter Games NZ 2026 project was shelved. Quebec City, Canada Quebec City initially expressed interest in bidding. In September 2011, Quebec City mayor Régis Labeaume ruled out bidding for 2022. However, the city may bid for another Winter Games in the future. Then - IOC President Jacques Rogge stated that he believes that the 2026 Winter Olympics would be a realistic option for the city to organize the games. Quebec has a problem finding a mountain for the downhill event, as the planned location of Le Massif was not approved. In September 2015, during an interview on Radio - Canada, Labeaume ruled out any possibility of Quebec making a bid for 2026. Labeaume also attempted, but failed, to create a joint bid with Calgary, Canada, Vancouver, Canada, or Lake Placid, United States. Calgary 's Mayor Naheed Nenshi had confirmed his city, the 1988 host, were pondering a bid, but the talks on a joint effort appear to have collapsed. United States On 9 February 2018, The United States Olympic Committee ruled out a bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics and will instead consider bids for the 2030 Winter Olympics. Boston, Massachusetts, United States Boston was actively considering a bid for the 2026 Winter Games. This campaign was dropped when Boston was named the candidate city from the United States by the USOC for the 2024 Summer Games. Boston 's campaign for the 2024 Summer Olympics was later dropped, and Los Angeles was chosen as the USOC bid city. ( Los Angeles was later awarded the 2028 Games as part of a deal to grant Paris the 2024 event. ) Bozeman, Montana, United States The Big Sky Committee for the Winter Games was seeking to bring the Olympics to the Bozeman and Big Sky areas of southwest Montana, immediately north of Yellowstone National Park. The committee, however, has not sought the bid since 2014. Lake Placid, New York, United States Lake Placid, the host of the 1932 Winter Olympics and the 1980 Winter Olympics considered a bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics with Albany, but had to drop when the US pulled out all bids for the 2026 Olympic Games. This opens up the possibility of another bid for Lake Placid, after a failed bid for the 2018 Winter Olympics, and the rumored bid for the 2026 Olympics that never was put into play. Salt Lake City, Utah, United States Salt Lake City, the host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, has been considering launching a bid to host the Olympics for a second time. It is not clear whether or not Salt Lake City would submit a bid for the 2026 or 2030 Olympics, but it may be dependent on which other cities submit bids. One obstacle for a bid from Salt Lake City is the fact that Los Angeles will be hosting the 2028 Summer Olympics. The US last hosted back - to - back editions of the Olympics in 1980, Lake Placid Winter Olympics and 1984, Los Angeles Summer Olympics. LA 2028 President, Casey Wasserman stated that an attempt for the United States to host the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games would `` require a lot of conversation '' with the Californian city before a bid is formally launched. The USOC is expected to discuss possible bids for the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games at its board meeting in late October. On 16 October 2017, leaders of Salt Lake City and Utah announced the formation of an official Olympic Exploratory Committee. According to sources, Salt Lake City appears to be more focused on 2030 and the USOC is monitoring the process to see if the IOC will award both the 2026 and 2030 Winter Games at the 134th IOC Session in Milan, Italy in September 2019, mirroring the dual allocation of the 2024 and 2028 Summer Games to Paris and Los Angeles.
