Canada Games

St. John's, Newfoundland will host the 2025 Canada Summer Games at the Aquarena, which is currently undergoing renovations in preparation for the event.

St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador was named the Host Society of the 2025 Canada Summer Games as of April 22, 2021.

For the first time in Canada's history, 1,800 athletes from 10 provinces and two territories gathered to compete in 15 sports.

Journalist Eddie MacCabe wrote a history book for the 25th anniversary of the Canada Games in 1992.

As the Games move from one host community to the next, the Council provides the continuity, leadership and support to Host Societies in key areas such as sport technical, organizational planning, ceremonies and protocol, marketing and sponsorship.

In addition, the Canada Games Council ensures effective long-term partnerships with national sport organizations, governments and the corporate sector.

The individual games are run by the local Host Society, a non-profit private organization that is established 2–4 years prior to the event.

The Canada Games Council maintains and secures long-term partnership agreements with governments, corporations and national sport organizations.
