More than 50 years after the inaugural Summer Olympics, Mexico unveiled its candidacy to host the 2036 games on Wednesday.
Hosting Olympics would be dream come true for mexico:
At a press conference with Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard, Maria Jose Alcala, the director of the Mexican Olympic Committee, stated, “We’re starting on the path to once again be the organisers of the Olympic Games in 2036.”
Ebrard called Mexico “a sporting power” and mentioned that it will be the first nation to co-host the men’s FIFA World Cup with the United States and Canada for a third time in 2024.
The prospective locations of the key venues have not been finalised, he said, adding that “our objective is to bring the Olympic Games to Mexico in 2036 and, if not, in 2040.”
The Olympic Games shouldn’t force cities to change. It is not advisable to construct large facilities that will never be utilised. The Olympic Games should be modified for urban environments, not the other way around, according to Ebrard.
The Summer Games would be hosted by a Latin American country for the second time.
At a height of 2,240 metres (7,350 feet) above sea level, Mexico City hosted the 1968 Olympics.
Along with the mayor of Istanbul, other nations with a desire to host the 2036 Olympics include Egypt and Indonesia.
A future international multi-sport event is the Summer Olympics in 2036, sometimes referred to as the Games of the XXXVI Olympiad. It’s possible that between 2025 and 2029 the winning offer for the host city will be revealed.
The IOC also changed the Olympic Charter to make it more flexible by eliminating the election date from seven years before to the games and altering the host city from one city to several cities, regions, or nations.
German bid participants criticised the modification to the bidding procedure as “incomprehensible” and “impossible to top” in terms of “non-transparency.”
