Buenos Aires 2018 – 1 Year To Go

The Youth Olympic Games (YOG) is positioned as a global event for the world’s best young elite athletes. The YOG are a core element in the development of future generations of top-level athletes. Extensive plans have been revealed by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), that will make the YOG even more impactful, effective and relevant for elite young athletes, and for the cities and nations that host them.

More athletes competing will result in a higher level of competition without increasing costs for the host city or the size of the Youth Olympic Village.

While the details are kept under wraps, Buenos Aires 2018 also revealed its plans to host an Opening Ceremony that will take place for the first time in an urban setting – near the famous Obelisk, one of the city’s landmarks. Access will be open and free to an anticipated very large attendance. To read the full article please visit this page.
