The countdown is on for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, set to dazzle global audiences from February 6 to 22, 2026. In a landmark gesture on Sunday in the Macao SAR, China Media Group (CMG) granted TeledifusĂŁo de Macau (TDM) free media rights to stream every icy moment across TV, web and mobile.
Under this new licensing agreement, residents of Macao can tune into live broadcasts and in-depth coverage on TDM’s channels—including Macao Sport and Macao Info—plus its official website and app. This follows a streak of successful collaborations: from the Tokyo Summer Games to the Paris Olympics, CMG and TDM are becoming a go-to duo for major sporting spectacles in the region.
What sets this deal apart is CMG’s commitment to cutting-edge tech. As the only rights-holder producing an 8K ultra-high-definition signal, CMG will blend AI-driven workflows and super-crisp visuals to deliver an immersive viewing experience. For the first time, CMG will also produce the international public signal for short-track speed skating and figure skating events, ensuring fans worldwide get front-row access.
For business and tech enthusiasts, this partnership showcases how media organizations are leveraging advanced broadcasting tech to meet rising viewer expectations. Young global citizens will appreciate how free access on multiple platforms breaks down geographic barriers, making Macao a hub for winter sports excitement.
From the thrill of the ice rink to the buzz on social media, the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics promise to be a milestone in sports broadcasting. With CMG’s 8K and AI-powered production and TDM’s local reach, Macao residents—and global viewers—are in for an unforgettable ride.
