New7Wonders Launches '7 Wonders of Future Cities'

On October 31, 2025, New7Wonders, the official global authority for public voting to select the Wonders, officially kicked off its new global campaign titled '7 Wonders of Future Cities' in observance of World Cities Day. This initiative marks the beginning of a worldwide search for seven urban developments that best embody the spirit of innovation, sustainability, and human progress, which are shaping the cities of tomorrow.

Following a teaser launch earlier this month, the campaign now enters a phase of proposals and applications. Over the next twelve months, cities, neighborhoods, and significant developments from all corners of the globe will be invited to submit their candidacies, showcasing their achievements in technology, design, livability, and environmental harmony.

Bernard Weber, the president and founder of New7Wonders, expressed, “7 Wonders of Future Cities allows us to extend our mission of celebrating humanity's heritage into its horizons. The wonders of the future are being constructed now, thanks to the choices, creativity, and courage of today’s urban visionaries.”

Jean-Paul de la Fuente, director of New7Wonders and president of the campaign, emphasized, “Today, we are starting a global conversation on what makes a city truly a 'city of the future.' It’s about how innovation serves humanity and how imagination can reconnect progress to purpose.” He further noted that “We see 7 Wonders of Future Cities as a celebration and honoring of the cities and developments that dare to dream, design, and realize a better balance between nature, community, and growth.”

True to the proven methodology of New7Wonders, public engagement will be at the heart of the project. After the current proposal and submission phase—accessible via www.7wondersfc.com—voting will commence globally on October 31, 2026, culminating in the official declaration of the 7 Wonders of Future Cities on October 31, 2027.

This campaign is coordinated by Global Platform Limited, the global commercial and licensing branch of New7Wonders, based in Dubai. The 7 Wonders of Future Cities campaign joins previous New7Wonders global, thematic, and national campaigns, including the original 7 New Wonders of the World and the 7 New Wonders of Nature, which collectively garnered over 600 million votes to date. They have generated the independently validated “Wonder Effect,” creating socio-economic, marketing, brand, and educational value for participating destinations and nations, measured in hundreds of billions of dollars.

As cities around the globe face challenges such as climate change and rapid urbanization, this campaign aims to identify and celebrate solutions that enhance urban living. As submissions begin to roll in, the excitement builds over which innovative cities will rise to the occasion and capture the world's imagination.
