The sport stole the heart of the nation at last month’s Winter Olympics, with huge numbers watching all the highs and lows intently, and there is more to come from the Cortina Curling Olympic Stadium.

ParalympicsGB have athletes competing in both the mixed team event and the mixed doubles, with the latter set to make its debut at Milano-Cortina 2026, two decades on from the sport's introduction at Torino 2006.

The aim may be simple – outscore your opponent by sliding granite stones closer to the target, the 'button' at the centre of the other end of the sheet of ice, across 10 rounds – but nothing at the Games can deliver the tension of the duel of strategy and nerve that unfolds.

Radio Times brings you our guide to wheelchair curling at the Winter Paralympics 2026.
