The Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games (Italian: Milano Cortina 2026 Giochi paralimpici invernali), also known as the 2026 Winter Paralympics (Italian: Giochi paralimpici invernali del 2026) and Milano Cortina 2026, is an upcoming international winter multi-sport event for athletes with disabilities, scheduled to take place from 6 to 15 March, with the Italian cities of Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo as hosts.

Organised by Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026 and governed by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), this will be the third Paralympic Games hosted in Italy, following the 1960 Summer Paralympics in Rome (the inaugural Paralympic Games) and the 2006 Winter Paralympics in Turin. It will be the first Paralympic Games since Tignes-Albertville 1992 to officially feature multiple host cities, and will be the first Winter Paralympics since Vancouver 2010 where the opening and closing ceremonies will be held in different venues.^{[citation needed]} It also marks the 50th anniversary of the Winter Paralympic Games.
