The list covers significant itinerant international events (rather than annual international events based in the UK) which have been discussed with UK Sport as events that are of interest to host. All event hosting opportunities identified here remain subject to further discussions between partners, potentially including detailed feasibility work. It is therefore possible, and indeed likely, that some of the events on this list will not progress to bid stage. This information is gathered, updated, and shared across the UK’s event hosting partners every 6-12 months by UK Sport. The purpose of sharing the information is to enable high-quality and informed strategic hosting discussions to take place between sports and cities. These multi-tiered partnerships are fundamental to the UK’s success as a place to host incredible international sporting events. Specific target years have not been listed for the future hosting opportunities, although many sports have a view on the year(s) that they would be most likely to pursue. A discussion is therefore required between cities and sports regarding the timing of such future opportunities. The events on this list span the next 10 years. With regards to the ‘mega’ events, these are itinerant event properties which are seen as the pinnacle of their sport at World level and which have significant staging costs, attract more than 100,000 live spectators, entail considerable delivery complexity and require extensive public funding and guarantee commitments. UK Sport has worked in partnership with DCMS and the lead events agencies in the home nations to agree a UK Mega Events Policy Framework. This helps to reduce the likelihood of internal bidding conflict, enhance the potential to collaborate, and optimise the sequencing of mega events across the UK for maximum impact. It is likely that some events on this list (primarily World Series events) will be secured for the UK on a fixed-term multi-year basis. In these cases, the event has only been listed once here. A discussion will be required with sports to understand the timeframes for such series. In addition to the international hosting targets listed, NGBS may also have a list of National events which they wish to discuss. Future hosting strategies are constantly being reviewed by partners here in the UK, and as a result some sports/disciplines/events that might be expected to appear on this list may be missing as they complete those reviews. Whilst many events on this list will be eligible to be considered for events funding by UK Sport, some will not. UK Sport investment and support is guided by its Events Investment Principles and by the Gold Event Framework. Further discussion may be required with UK Sport to understand potential to support specific events. Page | 3 .
