Bidding process
The new IOC bidding process was approved at the 134th IOC Session on 24 June 2019 in Lausanne, Switzerland. The key proposals, driven by the relevant recommendations from Olympic Agenda 2020, are:[1][2]
- Establish a permanent, ongoing dialogue to explore and create interest among cities/regions/countries and National Olympic Committees for any Olympic event
- Create two Future Host Commissions (Summer and Winter Games) to oversee interest in future Olympic events and report to the IOC executive board
- Give the IOC Session more influence by having non-executive board members form part of the Future Host Commissions.
The IOC also modified the Olympic Charter to increase its flexibility by removing the date of election from 7 years before the games, and changing the host from a single city/region/country to multiple cities, regions, or countries.
Future Host Winter Commissions
The full composition of the Winter Commissions, overseeing interested hosts or with potential hosts where the IOC may want to focus on, is as follows:[3]
| IOC members (4) | Other members (4) |

Dialogue stages
According to the Future Host Commission's rules of conduct, the new IOC bidding system is divided into 2 dialogue stages:[4]
- Continuous dialogue: Non-committal discussions between the IOC and interested parties (City/Region/Country/NOC interested in hosting) with regard to hosting future Olympic events.
- Targeted dialogue: Targeted discussions with one or more interested parties (called preferred host(s)), as instructed by the IOC Executive Board. This follows a recommendation by the Future Host Commission as a result of continuous dialogue.
Bidding parties
The three first potential submitting bidding parties were revealed by Octavian Morariu, the chair of the Future Host Winter Commission, during the 135th IOC Session at the SwissTech Convention Centre in Lausanne, Switzerland. He mentioned Sapporo of Japan. Salt Lake City of the United States; a joint bid from the Spanish cities of Barcelona and Zaragoza, and the Pyrenees region have conducted feasibility studies. Vancouver, Canada made a preliminary bid submission in February 2021.[5][6]
Stakeholders
Stakeholders are those cities or regions that have expressed potential interests in hosting the Games. To date, six National Olympic Committees, representing a total of four bids, have expressed their interests. They are:
Barcelona–Andorra–Pyrenees, Spain, Andorra and France; Barcelona previously hosted the 1992 Summer Olympics and earlier that year Albertville, the proposed venue for nordic and sliding events, hosted the 1992 Winter Olympics. Andorra, as the home of the Grandvalira resorts, could co-host snowboarding and Freestyle skiing events. The proposal would have Barcelona host ice sports and the Olympic opening and closing ceremonies at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys along with eight sports in other Spanish cities, France host five sports in Courchevel (nordic combined and ski jumping) with luge, skeleton, bobsleigh in La Plagne and Andorra host one in Soldeu (Alpine skiing).
Sapporo, Japan; site of the 1972 Winter Olympics, and also the marathon and racewalking events at the 2020 Summer Olympics. Sapporo hosted the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007.[7].svg.png.webp)
Vancouver-Whistler, British Columbia, Canada; Vancouver and Whistler hosted together the 2010 Winter Olympics. Vancouver hosted the 1960 and 2001 ISU World Figure Skating Championships, the 2009 ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships, the 2019 IBSF Bobsleigh and Skeleton World Championships, the 1966 and 1987 World Men's Curling Championships and the 2013 FIL World Luge Championships. Whistler hosted the FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships 2001 and the FIS Snowboarding World Championships 2005, and is scheduled to host the 2025 Invictus Games in Vancouver-Whistler. British Columbia hosted several other major competitions in all summer and winter Olympic sports.
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States; site of the 2002 Winter Olympics. In February 2020, following the announcement of Sapporo's bid, the organizing committee for the Salt Lake City bid was considered moving their intention to bid for the 2034 Games as the Summer Games are scheduled for Los Angeles in 2028.[8] At the first meeting in June 2021, the organizing committee considered whether it should change the bid for 2030 or 2034.[9] The decision for Salt Lake City on the bidding for 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics could be made after Beijing 2022 ending. President and chief executive of the Salt Lake City Bid Committee Fraser Bullock mentioned that the small window between the Los Angeles 2028 and a potential Salt Lake City 2030 Games could be a real difficulty to manage and that the feasibility study for this is still ongoing.[10]
Developments
An internal source from IOC has mentioned that the 2030 and 2034 winter games could be awarded simultaneously at the next IOC session.[11]
