Airbnb offers fans the chance to train alongside the Italian women s curling team

07 February 2025Worldwide Olympic Partner Airbnb is marking one year to go until the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 by offering fans the chance to train with the Italian women’s curling team at the historic Palazzetto del Ghiaccio in Cortina.

This unique, once-in-a-lifetime stay and experience available on Airbnb is hosted by Italy’s Olympic gold medal-winning curler Stefania Constantini, a proud local of Cortina who partnered with Amos Mosaner to the top of the podium in the mixed doubles event at the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022.


In addition to playing and training with Constantini and other members of the Italian women’s team at the Palazzetto del Ghiaccio, which will host curling events during Milano Cortina 2026, guests will follow their unforgettable day on the ice by staying in a traditional Cortina chalet, allowing them to fully experience the town’s unique Alpine charm. The Palazzetto is also known as the Stadio Olimpico del Ghiaccio as it hosted the Olympic Games in Cortina in 1956.

Interested travellers, sports enthusiasts and mountain lovers can submit a booking request. Bookings open on 13 February 2025, at 10 a.m. CET.
