In early October 2026, the city opened the Seoul Eoullim Sports Center in Nowon-gu. As the first municipal facility of its kind, the center features barrier-free infrastructure, including specialized swimming pool equipment and a bowling alley with handrails. The facility offers 97 programs, including 71 integrated sessions designed for both disabled and non-disabled participants to use together. Later in the month, the 2026 Seoul Disabled Sports Festival was held at the Seoul National University Comprehensive Gymnasium. The event hosted approximately 3,500 participants and athletes representing all 25 autonomous districts of Seoul. This marked the first time all districts had established their own disabled sports associations, facilitating a broader range of disciplines including boccia, indoor rowing, and floor curling. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-23: Seoul hosts 2026 Disabled Sports Festival for all 25 districts The 2026 Seoul Disabled Sports Festival concluded at Seoul National University, featuring 19 sports disciplines and participants from all 25 Seoul districts to promote inclusivity. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/seoul-hosts-2026-disabled-sports-festival-for-all-25-districts ### 2026-10-09: Seoul Eoullim Sports Center opens as first inclusive municipal facility Seoul has opened the Seoul Eoullim Sports Center in Nowon-gu, its first integrated municipal facility designed for both disabled and non-disabled citizens to exercise together. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/seoul-eoullim-sports-center-opens-as-first-inclusive-municipal-facility --- Cite as: Seoul inclusive sports initiatives.
