Netflix has announced a new three-part documentary series, Glitter & Gold: Ice Dancing, focusing on competitive ice dancers preparing for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Produced in collaboration with the International Olympic Committee, the series highlights top pairs from the United States, Canada, and France. It premieres on the streaming platform on February 1.
The documentary series Glitter & Gold: Ice Dancing comes from the team behind Simone Biles Rising and delves into the intense world of competitive ice dance. It captures the dynamics of lifelong partnerships, both romantic and platonic, alongside the dedication and emotions involved in pursuing Olympic success.
The series tracks several elite ice dance pairs as they navigate challenges on and off the ice. Featured athletes include American duo Madison Chock and Evan Bates, Canadian pair Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, and French competitors Guillaume Cizeron and Laurence Fournier Beaudry. Each episode examines their journeys, artistic innovations, and direct competitions leading to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina, Italy.
As part of Netflix's ongoing partnership with the International Olympic Committee, this project follows three Olympian-led documentaries linked to the Paris 2024 Games. The preview emphasizes the high-stakes drama and human elements central to the sport, with the Olympics set to begin next month after the series' release.
Glitter & Gold: Ice Dancing arrives on Netflix on February 1, offering viewers an inside look at these athletes' paths to potential glory.
