Games Organization

These will be the most widespread Paralympic Winter Games ever. Due to the widespread nature of the Games, sports and athlete villages will be divided into distinct clusters.

Travel

As an official partner of the Canadian Paralympic Committee, Air Canada is the preferred air travel provider and will be transporting Team Canada to and from the Paralympic Games. We suggest you consider their options for travelling to Italy.

  • Milano Malpensa Airport (MXP) is the recommended arrival airport to access the Milano cluster.
  • Venezia Marco Polo Airport (VCE) is the recommended arrival airport to access the Cortina and Val di Fiemme clusters.

If travelling by rail, please see Trenitalia for Train Information.

Further transportation (bus, train, taxi, or car) is necessary to access the venues. Please allow for sufficient time to navigate these travel connections due to the high volume of spectators and limited mountain infrastructure.

In each mountain area, the following services will be available:

  • Park and Ride: Park-and-ride areas where you can leave your car, as parking directly at the venues will not be allowed.
  • Train and Ride: Specific train stations designated for reaching the venues.

From the Park and Ride and Train and Ride areas, dedicated shuttles will be available to transport spectators directly to the venues, aligned with the start and end times of the competitions.

For information about reaching specific venues, please see the links below:

Accommodation

Italy has a well-developed tourism sector, for an overview of accommodation options, the following links may be helpful:

Team Canada fans should plan well in advance as it is anticipated that the demand will be very high.  

Another option to consider is Airbnb, a company operating an online marketplace for short and long-term homestays and experiences. In 2019 Airbnb became a Worldwide Partner of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC).
