Netherlands Hosts Olympic Speed Skating | Amsterdam News
Description
The 2030 Winter Olympics are heading to the French Alps, but speed skating’s spotlight is shining in the Netherlands—at legendary Thialf in Heerenveen, the first Olympic event hosted there since 1928. France opted for this proven venue instead of building a costly new rink, aligning with sustainability goals. Thialf’s electric vibe, 12,500-seat capacity, and world-class ice made it the perfect choice over Italy. Pre-Olympic test events during World Cups will fine-tune everything from ice to crowd flow, ensuring Dutch fans and athletes are ready for Olympic glory.
