Download AIC’s Welcome App for safe gluten-free dining during the Milano-Cortina Olympic Games
As international visitors arrive in Italy for the opening of the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, people living with coeliac disease may ask how to access reliable, local guidance to help them eat safely while travelling.
For this reason, we would like to highlight the availability of the AIC Welcome App, a dedicated visitor version of the Italian Coeliac Association’s mobile application. The app supports people with coeliac disease in finding restaurants, cafés and shops across Italy that offer safe gluten-free options.
Developed by the Associazione Italiana Celiachia (AIC), the Welcome App provides access to a curated network of food service operators that have been trained in gluten-free food safety and cross-contamination awareness. The app is specifically designed for travellers and does not require Italian residency or AIC membership.
The app is available for €3.99 in multiple languages and can be downloaded directly to a smartphone before or during a visit to Italy. It complements Italy’s long-standing commitment to improving awareness and safety around gluten-free food for people with coeliac disease.
For visitors attending the Olympic Games, downloading the AIC Welcome App ahead of time can be a useful part of travel preparation.
