Santa Fe 2026: Preparations intensify for South American Games
Preparations for the XIII South American Games Santa Fe 2026 are accelerating across Argentina. Key infrastructure developments include the inauguration of the Invencible Santa Fe multipurpose stadium and the completion of the Athletes' Village in Rosario. Additionally, the Jockey Club in Rosario is upgrading its facilities to host equestrian disciplines, and the Museo del Deporte Santafesino will serve as an operational cluster for the event.
Rosario has also been announced as the host city for the 2029 Junior Pan American Games. The opening ceremony for the 2026 South American Games, scheduled for September 12 at the Monumento Nacional a la Bandera, will feature a musical lineup including Soledad Pastorutti and Abel Pintos.
Ecuador has finalized its delegation for the games, consisting of 182 athletes competing in 29 disciplines. Notable absences from the Ecuadorian squad include Olympic medalists Glenda Morejón, Daniel Pintado, and Paula Torres due to the absence of race walking events or ongoing injury recovery.
