The inaugural Olympic Esports Week (OEW) will take place in Singapore between 22 and 25 June 2023, in partnership with the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, Sport Singapore and the Singapore National Olympic Council.
The four-day festival will showcase the best of virtual sports, exhibit the latest technologies and innovations in the field of simulated sports, and present opportunities for participants to try their hand at selected virtual sports titles. Other activities during OEW 2023 include panel discussions with industry stakeholders, forums and exhibition matches.
The highlight of the week will be the first in-person live finals of the Olympic Esports Series, a global virtual and simulated sports competition sanctioned by the International Federations. Find out more about the different virtual sports games to be featured at OEW 2023 from here.
Singapore’s hosting of OEW 2023 builds on the city’s legacy of successfully hosting the inaugural Youth Olympic Games in 2010. More than a decade later, the IOC looks forward to another successful collaboration as it embraces technology and innovation and pushes boundaries in the field of virtual sports with OEW 2023.
