Curling at the 1998 Winter Olympics took place at Karuizawa, who had hosted the equestrian events at the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The 1998 Nagano Olympics marked the second time that curling was held as an official Olympic sport. It was the first time the same city hosted events for both the Summer and Winter Olympics.
