About the Asian Para Games

The Asian Para Games, also known as Para Asiad, is a prestigious multi-sport event regulated by the Asian Paralympic Committee. It is held every four years, following the Asian Games, and is designed exclusively for athletes with physical disabilities. The Games follow a strategy similar to the Olympic and Paralympic Games, hosting both events in the same city. However, they run independently of each other, as the Asian Para Games are not included in the host city contract of the Asian Games.

Recognized by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), the Asian Para Games stand as the second-largest multi-sport event after the Paralympic Games.
