Before the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics, held in Buenos Aires, International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach visited Ushuaia and talked about the possibility of holding the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics here. By the end of the games, Bach said: "We were very impressed with the facilities in Ushuaia and in the mountains, seeing the many teams preparing for the winter sport season and all very happy with the conditions both on and off the ski piste. Ushuaia may study of hosting the Youth Winter Olympic Games but there is still some way to go".
