Believe it or not, the end of the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics is in sight. The majority of medals have already been awarded, and the closing ceremony is scheduled for Sunday afternoon.

The good news for serious Olympics fans is that the next iteration is only a year-and-a-half away.

The next Winter Olympics, which will be held primarily in the Italian cities of Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, will kick off in early February of 2026 and will feature 116 medal events in 16 sports.
