• National Olympic Committees will decide where their athletes carry the flag, allowing delegations to split across different venues.
• Two Olympic cauldrons will be lit simultaneously at Milan’s Arco della Pace and Cortina’s Piazza Dibona.
• The Armonia production features a spiral LED stage inside San Siro with storytelling that includes a tribute to Giorgio Armani and narration by Matilda De Angelis.
