India and Türkiye among 7 countries vying for 2036 Olympics

A total of seven countries are in the running to host the 2036 summer Olympics, the International Olympic Committee said on Tuesday (October 6).

Germany, Hungary, India, South Africa, South Korea, Qatar and Türkiye are all in preliminary talks with the IOC.

With no more countries expected to express an interest, a shortlist will be drawn up in March next year and the final decision expected in mid-2029.

The 2028 Olympics will take place in Los Angeles, while the 2032 games will take place in Brisbane, Australia.
