Irish Bid For Winter Olympics 2026

Visualisation!

If the west of Ireland is inflicted by an ice-age by 2026 we would like to show you how things might be! If we have time we will add more images to this page.

Speed Skating

An impression of what the speed skating event might be like held outside a hotel somewhere in the West of Ireland.

Dog Sled Racing

It is rumoured that 'dog sled racing' will become part of the Winter Olympics at some point in the future. Mayo Abbey is well prepared for this event as you can see from the artist's impression below. They have kindly offered bar and catering facilities in the Parish Centre for use during the olympics.

For a skiing holiday with a difference try Ski Lebanon.

Sponsors

An official photographer has been kindly sponsored by Landscape and Geophysical Services who offer a complete high-resolution mapping service to those interested in assessing landscape and heritage resources.
