Australian state in bid to host 2026 Commonwealth Games

MELBOURNE, Australia — The Australian state government of Victoria says it has entered into “exclusive negotiations” with the Commonwealth Games Federation to host the 2026 version of the games in regional centers in the state. Commonwealth Games Australia’s chief executive officer Craig Phillips says Victoria’s bid will be submitted to the CGF in mid-March with official approval likely in April. Phillips said regional facilities included housing and sports venues would be upgraded or built for the 2026 event and Australia’s sixth hosting of the games. The Olympic and Commonwealth Games share so many member sports.” Victorian state Premier Daniel Andrews said the deal was only finalized on Tuesday night and would be primarily an event hosted by cities and towns in regional Victoria.
