Switzerland is officially in the running to host a Winter Games.
posted in French and German, the Swiss Olympic committee confirmed moving from an informal to an "ongoing dialogue" with the International Olympic Committee about bidding for an unspecified Winter Games.
What's not been divulged is the identity of all contenders for 2030 or beyond, or the size of the field. With Switzerland's announcement late last week, just five current Winter Games bids have been made public. The discussions with the IOC are "not tied to any particular organizing year," a translation of the statement said, spelling out that there will be a "thorough examination" before any new Swiss candidacy.
Swiss voters have rejected several Winter Games bids before they got to an IOC vote due to the expense involved, including Sion's effort to host the 2026 Winter Games being held in Milan and Cortina, Italy.
