Ireland's quartet of Winter Olympians will bask in the glow of a job well done today when they return to Dublin after their feats at the Milano-Cortina Games.

Freestyle skier Ben Lynch has said it is an “incredible honour” to be chosen as Team Ireland ’s flagbearer at the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics on Sunday night. Lynch became the first Irish skier to qualify for a Winter Olympics halfpipe final and finished eighth, one of the country’s best-ever Winter Olympic results.

NBCUniversal's coverage averaged more than 23 million viewers, and Peacock had its best month ever.

Warner Bros. Discovery reported record-breaking streaming performance for the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, with the company posting triple-digit growth across its HBO Max and Discovery+ platforms compared to the Beijing 2022 Games.
