Boston

With many venues needed for staging the Winter Games already in place, Boston is well on its way to being prepared to welcome the world in 2026.

Opening and Closing Ceremonies - Fenway Park
Fenway Park has already demonstrated its winter capabilities by hosting outdoor ice hockey games. Its capacity is significantly larger than the stadium used for the opening and closing ceremonies in Turin in 2006, and it is centrally located in the city.

Short Track Speed Skating - Matthews Arena
As the oldest multi-purpose athletic building still in use in the world, Matthews Arena is due for Olympic glory. With a capacity of over 4,600 it is a great match for the short track speed skating events.

Curling - Walter Brown Arena
Walter Brown Arena, the home of the Boston University women's ice hockey team would be a match for the curling competition. It is significantly larger than the venue for curling in the 2002 Salt Lake games.

Olympics Medals Plaza - Boston Common
Nightly medal presentations will take place on Boston Common allowing thousands of spectators to participate for free in the Olympic experience.

Figure Skating - TD Garden
TD Garden is no stranger to hosting major figure skating events. The Garden will host the 2014 United States Figure Skating Championships and has a larger capacity than the venue that hosted figure skating in Vancouver in 2010.

Ice Hockey - Agganis Arena
Newly opened in 2005, Agganis Arena would be a very suitable host for the ice hockey competition. It is much larger than the venue used for ice hockey in 2006

International Broadcast Center - Boston Convention and Exhibition Center
With over 500,000 square feet of space, the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center is an excellent location for the worldwide media in attendance.

New Hampshire and Vermont

Connected to Boston by major interstate highways, the mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont will host the outdoor events. The travel time between Boston and the mountains is similar to that of Vancouver and Whistler in the 2010 Games.
