Concerns and controversies at the 2022 Winter Olympics Concerns and controversies at the 2022 Winter Olympics There have been concerns and controversies about the 2022 Winter Olympics which will be hosted in Beijing, China. Several cities withdrew their applications during the bidding process, citing the high costs or the lack of local support to host the 2022 games, leaving Almaty in Kazakhstan and Beijing as the only candidate cities by 1 October 2014. The decision to bid for the Olympics was controversial in China (and outside) because Beijing itself, and especially some of the proposed outdoor venues, does not have reliable snowfall in winter for snow sports.
