2026 Olympic Social Media/Ads

NBC just dropped this cross-promo ad for the Olympics and the Wicked: For Good premiere featuring Alysa Liu and Ariana Grande.
This 30-second promo is also on NBC Sports' YouTube:
I recall Ariana previously has taken a figure skating lessons at Chelsea Piers in NYC.

General Mills Canada has been promoting Deanna & Maxime a lot since Oct. 29: https://www.instagram.com/generalmillscanada/
Here's their limited edition Cheerios box:
 
Fear/Gibson were part of the launch of the Team GB ceremony wear kit:

Ana Vaipan-Law was part of the media day for the athletic kit lauch a couple of weeks ago. (I'm not a fan of the pastels!)
 
Allianz Taiwan Life Insurance's post last week: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/alli...tepintolife-activity-7403776535159308288-bj6n

📢 Exciting News! As the weather begins to cool, we are thrilled to announce that Allianz Taiwan Life has invited 2026 Winter Olympian Li Yu-Hsiang as our OPM ambassador! 🏅

“Allianz is the Worldwide Insurance Partner of the Olympic and Paralympic Movements, and we’re proud to support Li Yu-Hsiang as he gets ready to compete at the highest levels and go for the gold!” said Joos Louwerier, President and CEO at Allianz Taiwan Life.

Li Yu-Hsiang is not only the first Taiwanese figure skater to qualify for the Winter Olympics in nearly 30 years, but also the first homegrown talent to achieve this milestone.
In addition, Allianz Taiwan Life has launched its new brand campaign “Step into Life” that features Li Yu-Hsiang’s authentic story and encourages Taiwanese to live confidently, knowing that with Allianz by your side, you’re never alone in taking the next step.

Li Yu-Hsiang also attended Allianz Taiwan’s Town Hall Meeting as a special guest and dazzled everyone with his world-class live figure skating performance. He said, “I am proud to be the Olympic ambassador for Allianz Taiwan, and part of Allianz’s athlete community. As a Worldwide Olympic & Paralympic Partner, Allianz is committed to helping athletes get the most out of life. With Allianz Taiwan’s support, I will let the world see - even an iceless nation can bloom on the blade.” ❄️

Looking forward to his amazing performance in 2026 Winter Olympics!

Since 2021 Allianz (sponsor of Yu-Hsiang LI's video with English subtitles above that is very well-done, IMO) has been the worldwide insurance partner of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (Paris 2024, Milano-Cortina 2026, and now extended through French Alps 2030 and Brisbane 2032).

Allianz Italia's YT channel has a 4+ minute interview with Conti/Macii (uploaded on Nov. 11 in 4 parts - ETA: can't figure out if I can activate English subtitles?):

Isabeau Levito's Red Bull USA sponsorship dropped on August 6, 2025 (adding “has wiiings” to her stacked résumé 🧚): https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNBvtCkTK31/

Her profile page: https://www.redbull.com/us-en/athlete/isabeau-levito
Just wanted to note that I was corrected in Isabeau's fan thread :) (other Red Bull-related links are posted there):
She first posted about the Red Bull sponsorship on Instagram in April:

 
Sara Conti & Niccolo Macci are in a new ad for Lancia Italia.

I just checked and noticed that Delta's "Where Champions Fly" 45-second ad (uploaded to their YT channel on Oct. 30, 2025) was never posted in this thread (featuring Amber & the Shibutanis): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZAIKZUrc4I

Delta officially announced their Olympic & Paralympic athlete ambassadors back on Sept. 9, 2025:
Delta will welcome a familiar face to our Milan Cortina athlete ambassador team with figure skater Amber Glenn, who joined Delta’s athlete roster for the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022. New athletes will also join Team Delta, including the ‘Shib Sibs,’ Maia and Alex Shibutani, the dynamic duo who were the first ice dance team of color to medal at the Winter Olympics.
Jan. 21, 2026:
Making its TV premiere during the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, “Altitude” celebrates the reason Team USA trains at high altitudes. Training at such great heights is proven to strengthen athletes’ hearts, lungs and overall resilience. The film mirrors the visual arc of a Delta flight to Milan — rising, soaring and descending — as a powerful metaphor for the heights both Delta and Team USA strive to reach.
“Altitude” (1 min.): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM2LmxLuPn0
This ad also can be watched on Vimeo and is embedded in the article above, along with two 30-second ads - “Commit to Fly” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSCzSHzHaX0 ) and “What We Carry” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX1wgKCVJzc).

C&B are always posting videos of their dogs. The result is a pet food deal. You've probably seen the ads. There also is some fun social media content:

There's a bunch of Red Bull content out there featuring Isabeau. The hockey one posted above is my favorite. But, I also really like this skating limbo one that @Sylvia posted in another thread. Starting with a spiral, she moves on to an Ina Bauer, Besti squat, and shoot the duck as the bar gets lower each time. She eventually does a belly flop and slides under the bar, which is a move that I think we'll never see in competition. :lol:

Here's the video:


Not to be outdone in the energy drink department, Amber has a deal with Blossom for an energy drink:


Alysa and Isabeau are featured in Venus promotions. I've seen Alysa's ad on tv a number of times:
