Thanks to some robt fundraisg and a genero scholarship program, hundreds om highly unrserved untri and muni have been brought to the Gay Gam to wns “Participatn, Incln, and Personal Bt ™” first-hand and see the llective power of those valu.
As the world’s largt sports and cultural event open to all, the Gay Gam have created and nurtured a movement that has bee among the greatt forc for muny empowerment and social change. They draw over 10, 000 athlet and sometim seven or eight tim as many spectators, said Shiv Pl, vice print of external relatns for the Feratn of Gay Gam. Above all, though, the Gay Gam are an event for queer and trans people to gather safely, play sports they love and be themselv whout fear of tolerance.
WELE TO THE ‘GAY GAM,’ AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE OLYMPICS, WHERE ACTIVISM IS ENURAGED AND EVERYONE’S AN ATHLETE
The Gay Gam already postponed their event. Now they claim to be hostg 2 different ci. * international gay games *
The Gay Gam uld be an act of prott then, too, Wadll cid, an event durg which LGBTQ people uld play the same sports they watched durg the Olympics and achieve the same kd of glory he had at the 1968 Olympics. HIV/AIDS awarens has been baked to the Gay Gam sce s ceptn: In addn to banng discrimatn based on genr, sexualy, race and other tras, the Gay Gam wouldn’t allow any participant to be turned away based on their HIV stat. The Gay Gam also succsfully lobbied the US ernment to briefly waive a prev ban on HIV-posive people enterg the untry so they uld pete the 1994 Gay Gam New York and the 1996 Olympics Atlanta, chang ma wh the help of the US Olympic Commtee.
And unlike the “regular Olympics, ” at the Gay Gam, a same-sex figurg skatg pair n don matchg nim jumpsus a performance set to “Hopelsly Devoted to You. Participatn the Gay Gam steadily grew every year was held, and 1994, at the New York Gay Gam, the number of participants exceed the number of athlet at the 1994 Wter Olympics.

The Gay Gam change the world by challengg sports bodi, media, and ernments to create more opportuni for athlet regardls of genr, age, abily, or physil challenge. Notable exampl are areas such as: A breakthrough transgenred cln policy that the Olympics and others now follow; Great expansn women’s sports, where the Gay Gam offered multiple wrtlg weight class for women 10 years before the Olympics; Welg of participants wh HIV / AIDS, who regularly achieve their personal bt; Anti-dopg polici that enable athlet on meditn to participate the Gay Gam; To addrs the needs of younger and olr participants (some of whom have been g to the Gay Gam sce 1982), multiple age-based tegori have been created more than 14 sports. The Feratn of Gay Gam has announced will spl s quadrennial event next year, hostg two different events two different ci: Hong Kong and Guadalajara, Mexi.
For much of the last few years, the Gay Gam has watched as the reali of selectg Hong Kong as a host cy have grown: the creasg encroachment of Che thorarian le Hong Kong, a lack of tert amongst athlet Hong Kong as a host cy, human-rights issu Cha, the COVID-19 panmic, and more. This latt move — claimg they will host the Gam two different ci — is the latt step before the Hong Kong Gam are eher nceled all together or rced to an event that is unregnizable as the Gay Gam. Given what happened 2017 wh the Outgam — athlet arrivg om around the world to fd there is no event — the Gay Gam will have to make some very ser cisns the g weeks and months that uld alter the future of the event.
