MARIAH CAREY, ANNOUNCED AS FIRST
MUSIC ICON OF THE MILANO CORTINA 2026 OLYMPIC
WINTER GAMES OPENING CEREMONY
The American superstar will be
among the leading performers at San Siro
Olympic Stadium on 6 February 2026, enriching
the inaugural evening with an iconic
performance.
Milano, 15 December 2025 – Mariah Carey is the first
major music icon of the Opening Ceremony of
the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games,
scheduled for 6 February 2026
at the San Siro Olympic Stadium in Milano.
Recognised worldwide for her
unmistakable voice and for a musical legacy
that spans generations and cultures, Mariah
Carey perfectly embodies the emotional spirit
of the Games.
In this context, music,
a universal language that bridges stories and
perspectives, intertwines with the main theme
of the Opening Ceremony: Armonia.
At the San Siro Olympic Stadium, this
principle will take shape through an
encounter of cultures, creativity and
participation.
Sport, with its values of equality,
respect and inclusion, amplifies this
narrative, transforming Harmony into a shared
experience. Together, music and
sport will give life to an Olympic Opening
Ceremony where Harmony becomes an expression
of collective energy, a
symbolic space where communities come
together, transcend boundaries and recognize
themselves as part of the same vibrant
momentum of the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic
Winter Games. Mariah Carey’s participation
further underscores the international breadth
of the Ceremony and its messages.
The Milano Cortina 2026 Opening
Ceremony, created and produced by Balich
Wonder Studio, will be an unforgettable
experience: a collective embrace weaving
together Italian Spirit, innovation, emotion,
and performances by world-renowned artists. A
one-of-a-kind event designed to surprise,
unite, and leave an enduring memory for
audiences across the globe.
