The 2026 Winter Olympics start this Friday, and I’m already planning my snack situation and figuring out which events I’ll pretend I’m qualified to judge from my couch.
I went down a rabbit hole looking at what people online say is their favorite Olympic event, and honestly, I thought figure skating would take the crown. But nope. According to the votes, snowboarding is the number one most‑loved Winter Olympic event this year.
And I get it. Snowboarding feels like the Olympics’ cool, fearless cousin. Big jumps, wild spins, athletes who look like they could also star in a Mountain Dew commercial. It’s fun to watch even if you’ve never stepped on a board in your life.
Here’s how the full Top 10 shook out:
- Snowboarding
- Ice Hockey
- Bobsleigh
- Ski Jumping
- Alpine Skiing
- Figure Skating
- Freestyle Skiing
- Speed Skating
- Luge
- Short Track Speed Skating
