Alpine skiing made its Olympic debut at the 1936 Games in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. In 2026, the sport will feature ten events, with the women competing at the Tofane Alpine Skiing Centre in Cortina d’Ampezzo and the men at the Stelvio Ski Centre in Bormio. The only new addition to the programme is the introduction of single-gender team combined events.
Italy will be looking to build on a rich Olympic tradition. The country’s first gold came at Oslo 1952, courtesy of Zeno Colò in the downhill. The undisputed icon of Italian alpine skiing remains Alberto Tomba, the most decorated Italian in the discipline with three golds and two silvers. His unforgettable double victory at Calgary 1988 - in both giant slalom and slalom - remains one of the defining moments in Olympic skiing.
On the women’s side, Deborah Compagnoni etched her name in history by winning gold across three separate Games: in super-G at Albertville 1992, and in giant slalom at both Lillehammer 1994 and Nagano 1998. More recently, Sofia Goggia made history at PyeongChang 2018, claiming gold in the downhill to become the first Italian woman ever to win Olympic gold in the event - 66 years after Colò’s triumph.
