The new series of events created by Una Montagna di Libri
Immerse yourself in a unique experience where sport meets storytelling, among the snow-capped peaks of the Dolomites and the magic of the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Olympic Stories is the new series of events conceived by Una Montagna di Libri, the great international festival of literature that has been animating Cortina d'Ampezzo for over a decade with hundreds of initiatives dedicated to culture and sharing.
From the heart of the Queen of the Dolomites, we set off on an exciting journey between past and future: meetings with athletes of yesterday and today, champions of Italian sport, authors and storytellers who recount the soul of the Games, the feats that have made history, the personal challenges beyond the finish line.
Among the most eagerly awaited events will be moments dedicated to sports legends and their stories of commitment, resilience and passion. From the testimonies of great protagonists to the new Olympic perspectives, each meeting becomes an opportunity to reflect, get excited and rediscover the human value behind each medal.
The initiative comes to life in several phases, starting with events spread throughout the valleys of the Dolomites and then culminating, during the weeks of the Olympics and Paralympics in Cortina, with special events – partly still to be unveiled – that will accompany the public and enthusiasts directly into the heart of the Olympic festival.
Olympic Stories is not just about sport and literature: it is an experience of community, memory and inspiration, a new way of experiencing the Olympic values in a continuous dialogue between emotions and culture.
