Roma EuroGames 2019

Thank you Roma #EuroGames2019 for organising and hosting a great event! We look forward to seeing you all at Gay Games 11 Hong Kong 2022!

The 17th edition of the EuroGames was hosted for the first time in the magical “eternal city”-- Rome! The opening ceremony can only be referred to as majestic, as the world watched in awe as over 4,000 athletes from 55 countries joined together in waving both national and rainbow flags in the parade at the square Colosseum at Eur. Alongside rainbow flags, France, Germany, Spain, and American flags were prevalent, and well received with plenty of applause from their Italian hosts.

The EuroGames were inspired by the Gay Games, hosted in San Fransisco USA in 1986, and promoted by the EGLSF (European Federation of Gay and Lesbian Sports). The EuroGames are meant to provide a safe and inclusive environment, support the European LGBT+ community, and assist with networking and “coming out”. This year’s sporting events included Football, Tennis, Volleyball, Bowling, Swimming, Badminton, Dancing, Golf, Track and Field, Waterpolo, and Hockey, along with several ceremonies, cultural events, conferences, workshops, and more.

For the entire duration of the event, the EuroGames Sport Village was set up to provide an inclusive space to meet fellow athletes-- creating some life-long friendships-- and hosting entertainment, cultural events and music, as well as food and beverage services, and the stands of sponsors and supporting partners.
