The Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) has officially kicked off the host city selection process for the 2038 Asian Games, emphasizing the importance of early planning for the massive event. The council has sent out notifications to national Olympic committees across Asia, inviting expressions of interest from cities eager to host the prestigious games.
This proactive approach aims to provide the host city with ample time for urban development and sports infrastructure, ensuring a successful and memorable event. The OCA’s decision is in line with previous hostings, such as Doha for 2030 and Riyadh for 2034, which were decided well in advance to meet the high standards of the Asian Games.
Several cities are expected to throw their hats into the ring, with India proposing Ahmedabad as a potential host city. Other interested parties include South Korea, with Gwangju and Daegu launching a joint bid, and Malaysia, which is considering Kuala Lumpur as a candidate city ¹ ² ³.
The OCA has stressed that the Asian Games have grown significantly in scale, requiring a 10-to-12-year lead time for responsible hosting. This early planning will enable the host city to develop world-class infrastructure, ensuring a seamless experience for athletes and spectators alike.
