Savannah Guthrie and Terry Gannon are ready to introduce the world’s top athletes at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.

The "TODAY" co-anchor and NBC Sports commentator were announced on Tuesday as the co-hosts of the opening ceremony for the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics. The opening ceremony for the 2026 Winter Games will take place on Feb. 6 and will be shown on NBC and streamed on Peacock.

Savannah has become an Olympic fixture, as this will be her fourth time broadcasting an opening ceremony celebration. She co-hosted the broadcast for the Olympics in Tokyo and Beijing, and last summer, she was stationed on a bridge over the Seine in Paris alongside Hoda Kotb for the historic boat parade.

Savannah will also continue to co-anchor "TODAY" during the Milan Cortina Olympics, as she previously did for the Olympics in London, Sochi, PyeongChang, Tokyo and Paris.

This will be Gannon’s first time hosting the opening ceremony after having hosted the past four Olympic closing ceremonies.
