EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WBD HOUSE AND THE SNOW DOME STUDIOS AT MILANO CORTINA 2026
On Friday, Warner Bros. Discovery unveiled the two incredible studios that will be used in both Cortina and Livigno as part of its coverage of the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games.
WBD House will serve as Warner Bros. Discovery’s home in the mountains and will be a vibrant celebration of Milano Cortina 2026. Located in the purpose-built Nations Village in the heart of Cortina d’Ampezzo, WBD House has three studios and two stand-up positions with stunning mountain views.
Warner Bros. Discovery will be live every day throughout the Games, with the Closing Ceremony the final broadcast live from the studio on Sunday 22 February. Teams from Italy, Norway, Germany and Poland will predominantly be based at WBD House, though the studios will also be used by multiple other countries. Livigno will host the freestyle and snowboarding events during the 2026 Olympic Winter Games.
In this vibrant, young and dynamic ski resort, representatives from the global winter youth sports community will come together to celebrate the very best among them. A special place deserves a special touch. So, WBD – in partnership with the local authorities in Livigno – has created a bubble-shaped TV studio, open to the world.
The studio will be used by multiple countries during the Games, including the UK, Netherlands, France and Spain and will see the Italian team use the space for its daily show which will air at around 1800 CET.
Eurosport (mainland Europe), TNT Sports (UK & I), HBO Max and discovery+ will air every moment of Milano Cortina 2026 on its channels and platforms. Check local listings for more information.
