1992 Olympic Games Barcelona

The 1992 Summer Olympic Games, officially known as the Games of the XXV Olympiad, were an international multi-sport event celebrated in Barcelona, Spain, in 1992. The International Olympic Committee voted in 1986 to separate the Summer and Winter Games, which had been held in the same year since 1924, and place them in alternating even-numbered years, beginning in 1994. The 1992 Summer Games were the last to be staged in the same year as the Winter Games.

Host city selection

Barcelona is the second-largest city in Spain, and the birthplace of then-IOCpresident Juan Antonio Samaranch. The city was also a host for the 1982 FIFA World Cup. On October 17, 1986, Barcelona was selected to host the 1992 Summer Games over Amsterdam, Belgrade, Birmingham, Brisbane, and Paris, during the 91st IOC Session in Lausanne, Switzerland. Barcelona had previously bid for the 1936 Summer Olympics, but they ultimately lost to Berlin.

Brisbane	Brisbane’s preparations for its bid for the 1992 Olympic Games began with the successful hosting of the 1982 Commonwealth Games. On 15 October 1982 Brisbane Lord Mayor Roy Harvey announced that he would initiate an investigation into the possibility of Brisbane hosting the Olympic Games. This investigation led to the development of the “Committee to Organise the Brisbane Olympics” which drove the project forward.		Brisbane’s rivals for the 1992 Games were Belgrade, New Delhi, Birmingham, Amsterdam, Paris and Barcelona. Brisbane considered it had an advantage over its rivals as it believed a massive construction program to prepare for the Games was unnecessary. It was thought that many of the facilities used during the 1982 Commonwealth Games could be adapted.	Australia	11	9	10

Birmingham The Birmingham bid for the 1992 Summer Olympics and Paralympics was an unsuccessful campaign, first recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) on 28 February 1986. Ultimately it lost, having only gained eight votes with Barcelona going on to host the 1992 Summer Olympics. Its failure was due to a number of factors, including a perceived lack of support by the British Government for the bid as well as the international relations that the UK had at the time with South Africa and the United States.
