Cortina is preparing like an athlete for the next winter season, with the tenacity and concentration that the champion shows at the starting gate.

That of the most difficult race, in a winter complicated by the Covid emergency.

And while the windows of Corso Italia are waiting to reopen - the first event, 'Cortina Fashion Week', 4-8 December, will still be in web mode - the Cortinese community finds itself in the values ​​that mountain people have in their DNA: spirit of cohesion, determination, respect for safety.

Elements of an Olympic spirit that flows under Cortina's 'dress', from the 1956 Winter Games, an event that will return to the Tofane in 2026. "Yes, Cortina is preparing like an athlete - underlines the councilor for education and cultural policies Paola Coletti - we must hold on in this difficult phase, not only for Italy. We make our philosophy of Alex Zanardi, 'hold on for those 5 seconds longer, when you know you have already given everything', because that's where you can see the champion. We are trying to be 'champions' in organizing this winter season, which will open with the Snowboard World Championships, in Faloria, and will continue with the Alpine Ski World Championships in February 2021 ".

"It is a tough period for all tourism operators - he continues - We are facing it with important changes, continuous discussion tables with the categories (hoteliers, ski instructors, ski lifts companies), to put in place all the modalities for a safe holiday, the correct prevention measures, and avoiding unnecessary risks ".

Whatever the 'shape' of the next tourist season will be, it will be fundamental - explains Coletti - to give all possible information on the changes taking place :;

information that is centralized and made more agile on the 'cortina.dolomiti.org' site.

Ski season, world championships, popular events.

A schedule in which Cortina also expresses values ​​with choices of principle, such as that of becoming a 'plastic free' city, or the attention it has always dedicated to inclusion in sport, which - on the slopes, as in the ice stadium - is experienced 360 degrees.

Cortina boasts a great tradition in the Paralympic specialties of skiing, bobsleighing and curling, and these experiences will be enhanced already in view of the 2021 World Cup, only to find consecration in the 2026 Paralympic Winter Games.
