2022 Commonwealth Games Schedule, Date, Time, Venue, And Other Details
The 2022 Commonwealth Games, sometimes referred to as Birmingham 2022, is a multi-sport international competition for Commonwealth nations that will take place in Birmingham, England from July 28 to August 8, 2022. After Manchester in 2002 and London in 1934, Birmingham will host the Commonwealth Games in 2019, making it the eighth time that the United Kingdom will host the event after Cardiff in 1958, Edinburgh in 1970 and 1986, and Glasgow in 2014.
2022 Commonwealth Games Sports List and Venues
The West Midlands region will play host to 15 sites for Birmingham 2022, seven of which, including the athletics stadium and the marathon course, are in Birmingham. The National Exhibition Centre complex, which is part of the city’s outskirts in neighbouring Solihull, will host the Games at the NEC Arena in addition to its exhibition halls. Coventry, Cannock Chase, Royal Leamington Spa, Sandwell, Warwick, and Wolverhampton are the other six regional hosts. The track cycling will take place in a new location, the Lee Valley VeloPark in Stratford, East London.
The final number of competitions to be held in Birmingham was first announced in October 2020; however, three parasport relays in swimming and athletics have since been dropped from the schedule due to a dearth of preliminary entries. There will be 280 finals in 20 different sports. Another difference from 2018 is that there will be 136 events for women vs 134 for men, a first for large multi-sport competitions.
The number of parasport events has also increased from 36 to 39 including the first wheelchair basketball competition in Games history. Additionally, certain sports have had their competitions altered, such as the switch from basketball to 3×3 basketball.
