III Summer Youth Olympic Games

The 2018 Summer Youth Olympics (officially known as III Summer Youth Olympic Games) are scheduled to be the third Summer Youth Olympic Games, a major international multi-sport event and cultural festival to be celebrated in the tradition of the Olympic Games, in 2018 during the XXXI Olympiad. The host city will be elected among three candidate cities, Buenos Aires, Glasgow and Medellín, on July 4, 2013 in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Bidding

The IOC launched the bidding process on September 15, 2011. A letter was sent out to all National Olympic Committees (NOCs). The key dates are the following:[1][2]

Candidate cities

There were five bids for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games confirmed by the International Olympic Committee.[4] Bids were due by March 1, 2012. The list of applicant cities was announced by the IOC on March 2, 2012.

For the first time, Asian NOCs didn't submitted a bid for the Summer Youth Olympics, thus making it the first time that Asia will not bid, and eventually, host the Games. Three European NOCs (Great Britain, The Netherlands and Poland) entered Glasgow, Rotterdam and Poznań bids respectively. American NOCs Argentina, Colombia and Mexico also submitted bids for Buenos Aires, Medellín and Guadalajara respectively. Poznan withdrew their bid in October 2012.

On February 13 2013, the IOC Executive Board selected three candidate cities.[5]

Argentina Buenos Aires, Argentina

On August 30, 2011 Buenos Aires and the Argentine Olympic Committee announced that they will bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games.[6] Buenos Aires bid to host the 1956 and 2004 Summer Olympics but lost to Melbourne and Athens respectively.

United Kingdom Glasgow, United Kingdom

On September 19, 2011, it was announced that Glasgow would submit to the British Olympic Association (BOA) a proposal to bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics. Glasgow will host the 2014 Commonwealth Games. The city has never made an Olympic bid before.[7] On February 22, 2012 the BOA agreed to put Glasgow forward as the United Kingdom's bidding city for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics.[8]

Colombia Medellín, Colombia

The mayor of the city presented the bid on September 15 in Lausanne, following the high standard venues and experiences they had at the 2010 South American Games.[9]

Non selected applicant cities

Mexico Guadalajara, Mexico

Further information: Guadalajara bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics

Guadalajara was selected over Monterrey on February 16, 2012 to be put forward as an applicant city.[10][11] Guadalajara bid for the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics but withdrew their bid before the IOC vote due to a poor evaluation report.[12][13] Guadalajara hosted the 2011 Pan American Games.

Netherlands Rotterdam, Netherlands

Further information: Rotterdam bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics

On February 29, 2012, the day before the deadline for bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics, it was announced that Rotterdam would be putting forth a bid.[14]

Cancelled bids

Poland Poznań, Poland

Further information: Poznań bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics

Upon the announcement by the IOC of who the applicant cities were, Poznań was revealed as one of the bidders. The city bid for the 2010 and 2014 Summer Youth Olympics but lost to Singapore and Nanjing respectively. On 8th of October, the city council rejected the proposal budget of the bid. There were lack of financial guarantees from the city-organizer, so the city withdrew.[15]

Bids which did not go to application

The following cities proposed putting forth bids, but ultimately failed to do so:
