NBC Sports Relies on Grass Valley for Winter Games Signal Conversion, Routing, Orchestration

NBC Sports will utilize Grass Valley to deliver advanced signal conversion, routing, and orchestration technologies for its production of the 2026 Winter Olympics and Paralympics. These solutions will be deployed onsite in Italy, at NBC Sports' facilities in Stamford, Conn., and 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York, helping NBC Sports route the excitement in Italy back to viewers watching coverage of the Games in the United States.

Grass Valley has worked with NBC Sports for more than two decades, assisting NBC Sports' production efforts at previous Olympics and other major international sports events in Europe, Asia and the Americas, says Tim Canary, SVP Engineering. Their technology and engineering support are key components in delivering the unmatched quality and reliability that audiences expect from NBC Olympics' coverage.

We're honored to extend our long-standing partnership with NBC Sports for Milan Cortina 2026, adds Jon Wilson, CEO of Grass Valley. With Alchemist, Orbit, and the power of AMPP OS working together, backed by our leading infrastructure products and on-site support expertise, we're enabling NBC Sports to deliver the scale, quality, and reliability audiences expect across every screen.

The Opening Ceremony from San Siro Stadium in Milan will be presented on Friday, Feb. 6, live on NBC and Peacock. NBCUniversal is presenting its 20th Olympic Games, 13th consecutive overall, and owns the U.S. media rights on all platforms to all Olympic Games through 2036, which are scheduled for Milan Cortina (2026), Los Angeles (2028), French Alps (2030), Brisbane (2032), Utah (2034), and the Olympic Games 2036 (host yet to be determined).
