This Milan-Cortina bid has always seemed to me like some half-assed bid designed to piggyback off the general lack of interest. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,483 Posted March 30, 2021 #12 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I actually think the Paralympic Games logo looks fairly good. I think adding some color helps. I don’t really understand the current infatuation designers and consumers have with white on white designs. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Vic Liu 1,592 Posted March 30, 2021 #13 Share Posted March 30, 2021 For me the logo is copycat of London 2012. I believe the concept is that the easier(cheaper) the better. opruh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,893 Posted October 19, 2021 #16 Share Posted October 19, 2021 according to multiple sources in Italy, the Opening Ceremony of the 2026 Winter Olympic Games will be held at the legendary Arena Scaligera in Verona instead of the early "natural" site, the Giuseppe Meazza (AKA San Siro) Stadium in Milan... It seems also that Bormio (Valtellina) has been chosen to be the venue of the Ski Mountaneering events... Gianlu33 and Ted 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googling gives some indoor hall of some volleyball team but also an epic Roman theater....which would be absolutely amazing And Bormio seems cool Ted 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Bormio is cool, but the Dolomites are just on another level in terms of landscape... Ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunadan 1,103 Posted November 19, 2021 #19 Share Posted November 19, 2021 The Verona Arena will host the Paralympics opening and the Olympics closing cerimonies, not the Olympics opening. Ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
