Guadalajara 2018 was a bid by the city of Guadalajara and the Comité Olímpico Mexicano to host the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics.

History

On February 16, 2012, Guadalajara's bid was selected over Monterrey's bid to bid to host the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics by an inner voting from the Mexico National Olympic Committee [1][2]

It was reported in August 2012 that the bid may be in danger due to the debt created by the 2011 Pan American Games. [3]

Guadalajara failed to become a Candidate City for the games when the IOC selected the Candidate cities on February 13, 2013. [4]

Buenos Aires was ultimately elected as the host city of the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games on July 4, 2013. [5]

Mexico City hosted the Summer Olympic Games in 1968. Mexico City made two bids prior to their 1968 bid. They bid for the 1956 and 1960 Summer Olympics but lost to Melbourne and Rome respectively.

Guadalajara had previously hosted the 2011 Pan American Games and will host the 2017 World Aquatics Championships.
