The Federation of Gay Games has announced that registrations for the 11th Gay Games, co-hosted by Guadalajara and Hong Kong next year, is now open. It's the first ever Gay Games event to be jointly hosted in both Latin America and Asia. 



The Gay Games will take place from November 3 to November 11, 2023. The event is just 13 months away and the countdown will begin at the Federation of Gay Games Annual General Assembly in Guadalajara later this year when there’s just 365 days to go to the opening of the 11th Gay Games.

 

The Federation of Gay Games has urged people who are interested in participating to sign up as quickly as possible. The list of sports is available on its website indicating, which sports are happening in which location, and which events will be taking place in both.

Ensuring that everyone whoever they are, whatever their background, sexual orientation, or gender identity have the right to take part in their chosen identity being the most inclusive games, with personal best, participation and above all inclusion, at its heart.”


Commenting on the opening, Gay Games Guadalajara’s Monica Sanchez, said: “After challenging times that have marked and redefined us, it is time to meet again, to hug each other, and with pride celebrate our freedom. The appointment is in Guadalajara, at the XI Gay Games 2023. It will be a unique experience; the first time that we will meet again at the biggest diversity party after the global health emergency; and it will be the first time that we will do it in Latin America. You are part of this history, and we want to celebrate it with you. See you in Guadalajara, the most Mexican, progressive, and gayest city in Mexico. We are waiting for you with open arms in November 2023.”
