Italy: Milan – Olympic Flame ’26
The Olympic flame wasthe centerpiece of Milan’s celebrations for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Games. It’s burning at the Arco della Pace (Arch of Peace) in Piazza Sempione in Milan. Inspired by Da Vinci’s “knot” patterns, the cauldron is a kinetic structure that resembles a moving sun that expands and contracts, guarding the flame like a treasure chest. And in the evening, starting from 6pm and darkness – there is a spectacular lights and sound show!
