São Paulo announces candidacy to host the 2031 Pan American Games – News of Brazil
[ad_1]
The city of São Paulo announced this Thursday (19) that it will send a letter to PanAm Sports – the organization responsible for the Pan American Games – reiterating its intention to host the 2031 edition of the event. The document will be delivered by the municipal secretary of Sports of the capital of São Paulo, Cacá Viana. The leader will meet with the president of the international entity, Chilean Neven Ilic, in Santiago, where the 2023 Games will open tomorrow.
The city hall also announced that, during the event in Santiago, the Espaço Cidade de São Paulo – Casa Brasil will operate, with attractions that reference Brazilian culture, such as music and dance shows, among other activities.
The largest city in the country considers itself prepared to host the event due to the structure and experience acquired when it was one of the venues for the football World Cup in 2014. In the statement, in fact, the city lists itself as one of the possible venues for the Women’s Cup, in 2027, if Brazil is chosen as the country that will host the competition.
The Pan American Games, which are now in their 19th edition, have already hosted Brazil twice. The first was precisely in São Paulo, in 1963 and the second in Rio de Janeiro, in 2007.
For now, there is still no news of other candidates to host the 2031 edition. Between the current edition and the one in which São Paulo is claiming the right to host, the 2027 Pan American Games will take place in Barranquilla (Colombia).
