Athletes at the 2026 Asian Games will stay on a cruise ship and wooden huts in Nagoya, Japan, with accommodations assigned by sport.
Athletes at the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan, will stay in a mix of a chartered cruise ship and temporary wooden huts, organizers say, calling the setup a unique, cost-effective solution.
About half of the 15,000 athletes and officials will live aboard the Costa Serena, a 571-cabin Italian cruise ship docked at Nagoya Port, while another 2,000 will stay in wooden huts at Garden Pier.
The Games, running from September 19 to October 4, coincide with typhoon season, but officials say improved forecasting allows for preparedness.
Accommodations are assigned by sport, not nationality, and no special arrangements are planned for teams from Iran or North Korea.
Preparations are on track, public awareness is growing, and ticket sales have begun.
