About the Asian Games and Asian Para Games
The Asian Games are renowned as Asia's largest sports festival, held every four years and organized by the Olympic Council of Asia. With participation from 45 countries and regions, this monumental event showcases elite athletic talent across numerous sports disciplines. Japan has previously hosted the Asian Games, with notable events in Tokyo in 1958 and Hiroshima in 1994, making the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya edition the third time the country will celebrate this significant gathering.
Similarly, the Asian Para Games are orchestrated by the Asian Paralympic Committee under the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). This comprehensive sporting event focuses on promoting the Paralympic movement within Asia, encouraging participation from the same 45 nations and regions, and fostering the development of competitive sports for athletes with disabilities.
