The finest athletes from 74 nations and territories competing under their own flags. Athletes and Para Athletes together. A festival of sporting achievement and a celebration of difference. There’s nothing quite like it in the world.

The Commonwealth Games is the highest level competition in which an Isle of Man athlete can compete wearing the Isle of Man vest, and Isle of Man Athletics works alongside the Isle of Man Commonwealth Games Association (IOMCGA) to ensure Isle of Man athletes have the chance to represent their nation and compete in the Games.

Selection for Team Isle of Man at Glasgow 2026 will be subject to rigorous standards.

What is the Commonwealth Games?

Known as the ‘Friendly Games’, the multi-sport event brings elite Athletes and Para Athletes together to compete for glory; the only Games of its size to fully integrate Para Sport. More than that, it brings together the many different cultures that they represent, in a celebration of difference and achievement.

In 2026, the Commonwealth Games is returning to Glasgow, Scotland.
