Draft:Bids for 2040 Summer Olympics

  • Comment: Way, way too early. Wait until 2032 at least. OhHaiMark (talk) 21:26, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Far WP:TOOSOON to have an article. It would be extremely difficult to pass this as long as the article is using the phrase "they'll probably announce by 2030" as it does now without a source (which is still 6 years away from the time of writing).

Bidding Process

edit

The new IOC bidding process was approved at the 134th IOC Session on 24 June 2019 in Lausanne, Switzerland. The key proposals, driven by the relevant recommendations from Olympic Agenda from 2020, are:[1][2]

  • Establish a permanent, ongoing dialogue to explore and create interest among cities/regions/countries and National Olympic Committees for any Olympic event
  • Create two Future Host Commissions (Summer and Winter Games) to oversee interest in future Olympic events and report to the IOC executive board
  • Give the IOC Session more influence by having non-executive board members form part of the Future Host Commissions.The IOC also modified the Olympic Charter to increase its flexibility by removing the date of election from 7 years before the games and changing the host as a city from a single city/region/country to multiple cities, regions, or countries.

The change in the bidding process was criticized by members of the German bid as "incomprehensible" and hard to surpass "in terms of non-transparency".[3]

Dialogue stages

edit

According to Future Host Commission terms of reference with rules of conduct, the IOC's new bidding system is divided into 2 dialogue stages are:[4]

  • Continuous Dialogue: Non-committal discussions between the IOC and Interested Parties (City/Region/Country/NOC interested in hosting) concerning hosting future Olympic events.
  • Targeted Dialogue: Targeted discussions with one or more Interested Parties (called Preferred Host(s)), as instructed by the IOC Executive Board.

Official Bids

City Country NOC Ref.
Berlin   Germany German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) [5][6][7][8][9][10]

Germany had plans for 2036 Summer Olympics. They wanted to host the Olympics in 2036, because of the anniversary of 100 years, from Nazi Olympics, in 1936. The 2006 Football World Cup, envisioned the officials to try bidding. Also, Berlin had plans to host the Olympics with Tel Aviv, Israel, but this probably will not come true, due to the Israel-Hamas War. On 5th August of 2024, in Paris, France, at 2024 Summer Olympics, Berlin announced a bid for 2040, retire for 2036 Summer Olympics.

On 13 August 2024, the Government announced a detail bid for the 2040 Olympics. Also, they started various conversations with the IOC.

Potential Bids

City Country NOC Ref.
London   Great Britain British Olympic Association (BOA) [11][12][13][14][15]

In 2019, Great Britain have express interest of hosting the Olympics in 2036 or 2040. Birmingham made a failed bid for the 1992 Summer Olympics (which were awarded to Barcelona) and Manchester made two failed bids, for the 1996 Summer Olympics and the 2000 Summer Olympics (which were awarded to Atlanta and Sydney respectively). In July 2022, Khan said he and his office were working on plans to bring the Olympics back to London for 2036 in what would be the '"greenest Games ever". In a January 2023 interview, the Mayor stated that "2032 and 2036 are a done deal" and announced that a bid would be explored for 2040. London has almost host 3 times the Olympics, in 1908, in 1948 and 2012. In August 2024, Shadiq Khan express interests for hosting the Games again in London. Government has not answer yet if they can support the bid for hosting the games.

New Administrative Capital   Egypt Egyptian Olympic Committee (EOC) [16][17][18]

Egypt has expressed interest in hosting the 2036 Summer Olympics in a multi-million dollar under-construction sports complex called the Egypt International Olympic City, 45 kilometers east of Cairo. In January 2022, Egyptian Sports Minister Ashraf Sobhy revealed the country's plans to bid for the games and potentially seek to become the first nation in Africa to host the Olympic Games. Cairo had previously bid for the 2008 Summer Olympics and was not shortlisted, with the games eventually going to Beijing, China. The project is stated to feature a 92,000-seat stadium, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, tennis courts and indoor venues.

In April 2024, BBC Sport reported that Egypt was preparing to table a proposal to the International Olympic Committee. The Egyptian Olympic Committee is hoping that the success of their athletes at the 2024 Summer Olympics would help bolster Egypt's resume, which would benefit their bid should they launch it.

On 11 August 2024,the African Olympic Committee, announced that they will probably bid for the 2036 and 2040 Olympics.
