The upcoming Winter Olympics of 2014 in Sochi, Russia will feature six new Olympic events.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) added these events based on “a number of positive factors,” citing an “increase in universality, gender equity, and youth appeal.” These events all debuted at the January 2012 Youth Olympic Games in Innsbruck. Their popularity there may have helped secure their inclusion into the worldwide Winter Olympic stage.

Sochi was selected as the host city in July 2007, during the 119th IOC Session held in Guatemala City.
