Youth Olympics Games 2020

Leysin, January 16 – 22, 2020 

The Youth Olympic Games are an international Olympic sporting event of the highest level for athletes aged 15 to 18.
They combine sports performance, culture and education in an authentic celebration of sport with a festive atmosphere. The aim is to encourage young people to adopt and represent the positive values of sport – respect for others, for themselves and for our environment; friendship between people and cultures; and, excellence in self-giving – and to become sports ambassadors throughout the world.

Throughout the Youth Olympic Games, Leysin will be celebrating. In the tennis hall, in the centre of the village, there is Leysin’s « Freestyle Hall ». Open to all, completely free of charge, this hall will allow you to practice various urban sports such as Parkour, Trampoline, skateboard, etc. A Food & beverage area will also be available as well as a stage to host concerts and enjoy these Games in a festive atmosphere.
