Pietro Oliver Giachino (born 26 February 1995) is a Norwegian gymnast of Italian origin.

Pietro was born in Oslo to a Norwegian mother and Italian father. He has been competing in artistic gymnastics since 2006 and joined the Norwegian national team in 2007.[1][2] Pietro achieved success as a member of the club, winning medals as a junior and, later, senior competitor.[3][4]

The young gymnast participated in the 2014 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.[1] He was later given the opportunity to compete for an Italian club, Juventus (not to be confused with the football team), (February–March 2015) and participate in three sporting events. He took part in the first European Games in June.[1] Pietro also participated in the 2015 Championships in Glasgow.[2]
