at the XXV Olympic Winter Games

The curling competitions of the 2026 Winter Olympics will be held at the Cortina Olympic Stadium in Cortina d'Ampezzo. Curling competitions are scheduled for every day of the games, from February 4 to 22. [1] This will be the ninth time that curling is part of the Olympic program.

Contents

In each of the three events, men's, women's, and mixed doubles, 10 nations will compete. A total of 120 quota spots (60 per sex) are distributed to the sport of curling, however athletes may compete in both men's/women's and mixed doubles if their nation has qualified and the athlete is nominated for both events by their NOC. [2] A total of 3 events were contested, one for men, one for women, and one mixed. [3]

Qualification

As the host, Italy automatically qualifies a team for each event. [4]

Qualification to the curling tournaments at the Winter Olympics was determined through two methods: [1]

  1. The eight highest ranked National Olympic Committees from a list generated by Olympic Qualification Points earned at the 2024 and 2025 women’s, men’s and mixed doubles world championships will qualify for the Olympic Winter Games. In case hosts of the Olympic Winter Games, Italy, does not finish in the top eight places of the respective discipline, only the seven highest ranked National Olympic Committees will qualify for the Olympic Winter Games through this path.
  2. The remaining two spaces in each event are decided at the Olympic Qualification Event, to be held in December 2025 at the Kelowna Curling Club in Kelowna, Canada. [5]
