Malaysia declined hosting 2026 Commonwealth Games despite £100m incentive; CGF seeks new host.
The Commonwealth Games future is uncertain after Malaysia declined to host the 2026 edition, despite a £100m ($126m) financial incentive from the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF). Organisers are now seeking a new host to secure the event, with the CGF emphasising the strengths of inclusivity and integration within the games. Previous host, Australia, withdrew in 2022. The financial support is available to any prospective host.
