The 2021 Islamic Solidarity Games (Turkish: 2021 İslami Dayanışma Oyunları) were the 5th edition of the event held from 9 to 18 August 2022 at Konya, Turkey under the aegis of Islamic Solidarity Sports Federation (ISSF). It was the first time in history that the event was organised by the Turkish Olympic Committee.
Formerly scheduled to take place from 20 to 29 August 2021, the event was postponed to be held from 10 to 19 September 2021 in July 2020 by the ISSF because the original dates were coinciding with the 2020 Summer Olympics, which were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1][2][3] In May 2021, the ISSF postponed the event to August 2022 citing the COVID-19 pandemic situation in the participating countries.[4]
Bidding
[edit]On 22 / 23 December 2016, the Turkish Olympic Committee submitted its bid for 2021 Islamic Solidarity Games during a Coordination Meeting with Islamic Solidarity Sports Federation held at the country.[5]
On 13 April 2017, Istanbul was awarded the event during the 25th ISSF Executive Board meeting held at Baku, Azerbaijan.[6] In December 2019, Turkey requested to change the host city from Istanbul to Konya, which was subsequently approved by the ISSF. The host city contract was signed in a meeting on 19 December 2019 in Ankara, Turkey.[7]
