The 6th Micronesian Games were held on Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands from June 23-July 2, 2006.

In February 2006, the Games were canceled by the Governor of the Northern Marianas, Benigno R. Fitial, due to a financial crisis and a lack of planning.

However, after pleas from athletes, coaches and parents, and the creation of a financial plan, the Games were allowed to go on.
