The International Committee of Mediterranean Games launched the bidding process for the 2030 games at a meeting of its executive committee held on 10 December 2022 in Pristina, Kosovo.[1][2][3][4] In April 2023, the International Committee of Mediterranean Games (CIJM) announced the end of the candidature process and the sole candidate city, Pristina, for the 2030 Games.[5] On 8 September 2023 in Heraklion, during the ICMG General Assembly, the elections for the designation of the Host Cities of the 21st Mediterranean and of the 4th Mediterranean Beach Games will be held.[6] If Prishtina were to win the right to organize the Mediterranean Games, it would be the first time that the event is held in a landlocked country. Additionally, it would mark the second instance of the Mediterranean Games being organized in a country without access to the Mediterranean Sea, following the 1983 Mediterranean Games held in Casablanca, Morocco.
