One of the sports contested at the first Winter Games in 1924, Nordic combined, combines ski jumping with a cross-country race. Athletes first compete in ski jumping, on a normal or large hill, and then race on a 10km cross-country course to determine the winner. 

Nordic combined will take place from February 5 to February 13 during the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics. 

Nordic combined will take place across two venues during the 2026 Winter Olympics. The cross-country portion of the event will take place at cross country and biathlon center Fabio Canal. The venue is in the municipality of Tesero, in northern Italy.  The center has hosted the Tour de Ski, FIS Nordic World Skiing Championships and more. It also will host the cross-country skiing and biathlon events for the 2026 Paralympics.

Ski jumping for Nordic combined will be contested at the Ski Jumping Arena in Predazzo, a village in northern Italy. The venue has hosted multiple FIS Nordic World Ski Championships and Ski Jumping World Cups. 

Nordic combined has three men’s events, the individual Gunderson normal hill/10km race, the individual Gunderson large hill/10 km and the individual Gunderson large hill/2x7.5km race, which is a team race.
