Washington, DC, USA, and Birmingham, UK, have been shortlisted to host the Invictus Games in 2027, according to the Invictus Games Foundation. This list of candidates has been verified following an extensive process that was started the previous year. By the end of July, the board of trustees will have decided.
In addition to an indicative sports schedule that includes the nine core Invictus Games sports plus esports, the bid from the city of Washington, spearheaded by Events DC, outlines several potential venues in and around the city, with a focus on the George Washington University campus.
“We were delighted to receive such a strong field of applications to host the Invictus Games in 2027, which gives us tremendous confidence for this next iteration of the Games following Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025 presented by ATCO and Boeing,” stated Lord Allen, chair of the Invictus Games Foundation. Both of the cities that have been shortlisted for 2027 have constructed unique yet incredibly exciting bids while keeping the experiences of their rivals and supporters at their core. We are eager to move on to the next phase of the procedure and choose a new, creative version of the games for the summer.
