The United World Games are an international grassroots sports tournament for clubs, teams, and regional selections—in other words, open to anyone who takes sports seriously and enjoys playing them. In 2027, this means that thousands of athletes from around 30 nations will compete against one another in eleven sports—right on the shores of Lake Wörthersee in Klagenfurt, one of Austria’s most beautiful regions.
11 sports, thousands of athletes from around 30 countries—at the UWG, clubs and teams from all over the world compete against one another on an international stage.
A tent city right in the middle of the stadium, the Players Party, and an opening ceremony featuring a parade of flags representing all nations make the tournament an experience that leaves a lasting impression.
Klagenfurt and Lake Wörthersee provide the backdrop for a multisport event of this magnitude—mountains, a lake, and plenty of space for outdoor sports.
