"VAN" (Sports Desk - 05.10.2025) :: World Skate are both delighted and honoured to share news of the official one-year countdown to World Skate Games ASU26 in the Paraguayan capital Asunción and surrounding areas this time next year!
The World Skate Games are an unprecedented experience where all 12 sports performed on skating wheels merge into a whirlwind of breathtaking emotions- a real festival of youth, where sport and entertainment mixes together.
Over 12,000 athletes, staff and teams from more than 100 countries will gather in Paraguay from October 2-18, 2026, bringing together 12 sports, one e-sport, and 23 disciplines taking place across venues such as Paraguayan Olympic Committee, the National Sports Secretariat, the Port of Asunción, the Asunción Costanera, as well as the cities of San Bernardino and Altos.
154 World Champions of their respective disciplines will be crowned in one of the world’s largest alternative sporting extravaganzas!
Leading on from the huge cultural and economic uplift of WSG Italia 24, World Skate Games ASU26 will project Paraguay onto the world stage, generating a strong sporting, tourism, and cultural impact. This huge event will showcase Paraguayan hospitality and position Asunción as an ever-more international sports capital.
World Skate President Sabatino Aracu observed:
“We are thrilled to bring the fifth edition of our Games to Paraguay – a country that breathes youth and future!
With one of the youngest populations in the world and a President, Santiago Peña Palacios, who at just 47 embodies this generational energy, Paraguay perfectly reflects the spirit of the urban and sustainable sports that are the very soul of World Skate.”
