Behind the Scenes at the Asian Winter Games MMC

Step inside the buzzing heart of the 9th Asian Winter Games in Harbin, where the Main Media Center (MMC) is already humming with energy a week before Friday’s opening ceremony!

Your Passport to Media Magic

Located in the sprawling Harbin International Conference, Exhibition and Sports Center, the MMC isn’t just a workspace—it’s a vibe. Designed to support journalists and broadcasters across Asia, the complex splits into the Main Press Center (MPC) and the International Broadcasting Center (IBC). Think of it as the Avengers HQ for sports media… but with more snow gear.

Perks, Paws, and Past Torches

Friendly volunteers are on standby to help with translations and directions, while foreign currency exchange counters keep things global-ready . And let’s talk merch: the official store is stocked with limited-edition souvenirs, including the Games’ tiger mascots Binbin and Nini (yes, they’re as cute as they sound ).

History buffs can geek out over an exhibit showcasing torches from past Asian Winter Games, while art lovers will vibe with calligraphy and paintings celebrating Harbin’s icy charm.

Countdown to the Big Freeze

With the opening ceremony just days away, the MMC is primed to become ground zero for headline-making moments. Stay tuned—winter is coming, and Harbin’s ready to shine!
