There really is an unspoken language between Olympians…The happiness, the tears they don't need an explanation. Representing peace, love and unity all over the world.” – Tara Lipinski

There are a couple of ways to watch the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony on Sunday, Feb. 22. You can tune in live Sunday afternoon on NBC or stream live on Peacock, or catch the encore broadcast on NBC, which is available with DirecTV, Hulu + Live TV, and more.

The network debuted a short film featuring Hudson and Olympic stars during the Milan Cortina Olympics closing ceremonies, teeing up the 2028 Los Angeles games.

It may seem difficult to believe, but the 2026 Winter Olympics have reached their final day. The closing ceremony is scheduled for Sunday afternoon, and with that, the Milano Cortina Games will come to a close.

The 2026 Winter Olympics conclude at Verona Arena, marking the first Olympic Closing Ceremony held at a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Hilary Knight and Evan Bates have been chosen as Team USA’s flag bearers for the closing ceremony of the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics. Both athletes are making their fifth Olympic appearance — and final one, in Knight’s case — and are earning the honor for the first time.
