What Asian Para Games is
The fifth Asian Para Games follow in the same region two weeks after the Asian Games, running from 18 to 24 October 2026 across eighteen sports.
Holding both games in one host region in one autumn is now the standard pattern, as it is for the Olympics and Paralympics.
When it falls, and why the date moves
The countdown at the top of this page is live, and the date beneath it is the next occurrence. This is a one-off date and does not repeat.
It is grouped here under Sport, alongside the other observances that share its calendar.
What is coming up next
Once this date passes, the countdown moves straight on to the next occurrence — you do not need a different page for next year. See the full list of upcoming events, or use the countdown timer for a date of your own.
