The host city will be selected at the 134th IOC Session in September 2019 in Milan, Italy . However, Sion, Switzerland, which is a possible contender for the 2026 race, is set to hold a possibly nationwide referendum on 10 June 2018 . If Sion is defeated in the referendum, the 134th IOC Session in September 2019 will be moved to the IOC headquarters of Lausanne, Switzerland, allowing the Italian city of Turin to step in as an official candidate for 2026 . </P> <P> The IOC Executive Board met in Lausanne to discuss the 2026 bid process on 9 June 2017 . For the 2026 candidature process, the IOC will take a more proactive role in assisting and supporting cities considering a candidature . The IOC will customize its approach to the needs of the cities in order for them to develop the best value proposition . These measures will lead to a simplified process for the cities, with reduced costs . The Invitation Phase has been extended to one year, starting 13 September 2017, and the Candidature Phase has been shortened to one year, starting from 2018 to 2019 . The new approach was approved at the Extraordinary IOC Session on 11--12 July 2017 . These measures were enacted after no city had bid on the Games well into 2017 . </P>
