The official kickoff of the 2026 Winter Olympics, the opening ceremony, will take place on Friday, Feb. 6, at Milan's San Siro Stadium.

The star-studded entertainment includes performances planned by Mariah Carey, Laura Pausini, Andrea Bocelli and Sabrina Impacciatore of the HBO show, "White Lotus." The pageantry concludes with the traditional lighting of the Olympic flame and the parade of nations with participating athletes from around the globe.

You won't want to miss any of it, so be sure you're watching from the beginning. And if you can't catch the ceremony as it happens live, there also will be a prime-time replay.
