According to the Associated Press, the rotational hosting of the Winter Olympics has reduced the number of candidate cities due to practical difficulties such as increased stadium construction costs. are doing Pyeongchang, Salt Lake City in the US, Vancouver in Canada, Switzerland, Italy, and Scandinavian countries were mentioned as candidate cities.
The recent Winter Olympics were held in Pyeongchang in 2018, in Beijing in 2022, and in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo in Italy in 2026. The 2030 Winter Olympics were held in Sapporo, Japan, but in December of last year, the city of Sapporo announced that it would conduct a public opinion poll on the hosting of the Olympics, which changed to a passive attitude.

Retired “ski empress” Lindsay Vonn (USA), who serves on the Winter Olympics bidding committee in Salt Lake City, told The Associated Press, “It’s difficult to secure a city to host the Winter Olympics because of climate change and problems with competition facilities. “(For this reason, rotational holdings) were actually discussed. Rotational holdings can reduce costs by utilizing existing facilities,” they responded positively. However, she said, “We know that discussions are ongoing, but we do not know how soon it will be implemented. Rotation will not be implemented until 2034.”
