Milan-Cortina 2026 unveils twin Olympic cauldrons

Beijing, Jan 21 (UNI) A pair of identical Olympic cauldrons that will be lit simultaneously in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo was unveiled during an online media briefing on Tuesday night, with Milan-Cortina 2026 set to feature twin cauldrons in separate locations.
Marco Balich, the creative director of Milan-Cortina 2026, said the cauldrons will be ignited during the opening ceremony on February 6 and remain lit in both cities throughout the Games.
Balich said the design draws inspiration from the Olympic flame's origins in Olympia, where mirrors are used to capture the sun's energy, translating that concept into a dynamic form.
