Chronological summary of the 2022 Winter Olympics
This is a chronological summary of the major events of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing and venues near neighboring towns of Yanqing and Chongli in the People's Republic of China. Competition began on 2 February with the first matches in the group stages of the curling events. The opening ceremony was held two days later on 4 February. The last day of competition and the closing ceremony were on 20 February. The games featured 109 events in 7 different sports, encompassing a total of 15 disciplines. New events included men's and women's big air freestyle skiing, women's monobob, mixed team competitions in freestyle skiing aerials, ski jumping, and snowboard cross, and the mixed relay in short track speed skating. About 91 National Olympic Committees qualified athletes, with Haiti and Saudi Arabia each making their Winter Olympics debuts. As a result of the 2020 ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport on the Russian doping scandal, Russian athletes competed in both the 2020 Summer Olympics and the 2022 Winter Olympics under the acronym "ROC" after the name of the Russian Olympic Committee, and under the flag of the Russian Olympic Committee. Calendar
Competition began two days before the opening ceremony on 2 February, and ended on 20 February 2022. Organizers went through several revisions of the schedule, and each edition needed to be approved by the IOC. All times and dates use China Standard Time (UTC+8)

 After several skaters in the men's 1000m receive penalty or yellow card decisions, Korea and Hungary file protests against those specific decisions that were handed to Hwang Dae-heon and Shaolin Sándor Liu, respectively. Because Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong of China finish with gold and silver, respectively, and no other skater from the host country was penalized, other athletes accuse the officiating of bias.
