The City of Frankfurt is bidding for the EuroGames – Europe’s largest LGBTQI+ multi-sport event. 

The event holds tre­mend­ous poten­tial to advance diversity, tol­er­ance, and equal­ity both region­ally and across soci­ety at large. It takes place annu­ally, typ­ic­ally in July, over the course of four days. Between 2,000 and 5,000 ath­letes from all over Europe come together to com­pete in more than 15 dif­fer­ent sports.

The com­pet­i­tions are accom­pan­ied by a vibrant sup­port­ing pro­gram, includ­ing an open­ing and clos­ing cere­mony as well as vari­ous cul­tural high­lights. At the heart of the event is the so-called Euro­Games Vil­lage – a cent­ral meet­ing place where ath­letes, volun­teers, and vis­it­ors gather through­out the event to cel­eb­rate inclu­sion and the recog­ni­tion of the LGB­TIQ+ com­munity in a peace­ful and wel­com­ing atmo­sphere.
