Incorrect. Again, those Championships were well outside the July/August Games hosting dates required now by the International Olympic Committee. Due to the hot climate in September/October, there were no morning sessions at the 2019 World Athletics Championships and events were held in the late afternoon onward. Long-distance road events were scheduled to start around midnight local time. This is not possible in July/August when the IOC now require the Games to be held. Not being able to the Games in July/August because of the hotter weather was a dealbreaker is one of the main reasons why the Doha 2032 candidature was not elevated to the Targeted Dialogue phase.

I put that list together myself, right here at home. Bach nor the IOC has never released such a list on 2036 interest in hosting. I am a long time Olympic Games fan for all Olympic Games. I’ve been to Olympic Opening Ceremonies in Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004 where I worked as the volunteer team leader at the triathlon turning point, on the field of play for media access at the cycling road finish line and time trial. I put the list together by googling the many media reports with the links of interested parties, cities and countries who have stated publicly they are interested in Hosting the 2036 Olympic Games. I may not even have captured all the interest. I post on many different editions of the Olympic Games around the world, Summer and Winter, across several Olympics blogs including Totallympics, Gamesbids and Skyscrapercity.

Coventry to chair IOC Coordination Commission for Brisbane 2032 - 7Oct21 - Inside The Games Kirsty Coventry has been appointed to chair the International Olympic Committee Coordination Commission for Brisbane 2032. The Zimbabwean swimmer is a seven-time Olympic medallist and became a full IOC member at the organisation's Session in Tokyo in July, coinciding with her term as chair of the IOC Athletes' Commission coming to an end.

Absolutely.

Nothing scripted about it. Like him or not, that’s up to you. But this is the reality of a crowded list of interested parties from around the world to hosting the Olympic Games in 2036. The IOC is triumphant. 2036 Interested Parties Media Reports Ahmedabad 14 Jul-21: Olympic Bid: Two agencies in fray to create roadmap for Ahmedabad – Times of India 2036 Olympics in Ahmedabad - 24Aug21 - Times of India Berlin, Tel Aviv 16 Apr-21: German officials expresses support for a Tel Aviv-Berlin Olympics in 2036 Budapest 3 Sep-21: “Budapest 2032 Committee" officially renamed as Hungarian capital continues pursuit to host Olympic Games Nanjing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dalian, Xi'an, Chengdu, Jinan, Xiamen, Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Suzhou 12 bidding cities for the 2036 Olympic Games - 2Oct21 - MINNEWS Odessa Odessa bid for 2036 Olympic Games possible, Ukrainian politician Kolesnikov moots - 30Sep21 - Inside The Games Florence, Bologna, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna 21 Jul-21: Florence, Bologna, Tuscany and Emilia Romagna, Italy 2036 Olympics, Giani and Nardella: “Bringing the Summer Games to Italy shouldn’t remain a dream” - 25Jul21 - ConradAtkinson Guadalajara Guadalajara, Mexico City, Tijuana, Monterrey, Mexico Tijuana-San Diego Olympic Project resurfaces by 2036 - 12Jul21 - Around The Rings Jakarta 23 Jul-21: Indonesia to bid for 2036 Olympics after 2032 failure After Tokyo 2020, Jakarta aims to secure ASEAN’s first Olympics - 12 Aug21 - Asean Economist Rostov-On-Don, Vladivostok, Perm, Novosibirsk, Sochi, Ufa At least six regions in Russia are interested in hosting 2036 Olympic Games - 27Sep2021 - Gamesbids.com Istanbul 14 Jul-21: Istanbul Mayor launches bid for 2036 Olympic Games We are Assertive in bringing 2036 Games to Istanbul - 30Aug21 - Railly News London, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester 4 May-21: Khan targets 2036 or 2040 Olympic and Paralympic bid if re-elected London Mayor Olympic hosting ground looms after Tokyo - 24Sep2021 - Bolly Inside Madrid Madrid Mayor denies Spanish capital has joined 2036 Olympic bid race, but door is open - 23 Sep21 - Gamesbids.com Madrid Enters 2036 Race, or Not? - 24Sep21 - SwimSwam Montreal, Toronto 3 Feb-21: Montreal and Toronto, Canada’s new Olympic bet Olympic hosting ground looms after Tokyo - 24Sep2021 - Bolly Inside Rhine Rhur 12 Jul-21: German Olympic Bid Embraces Flexibility South Korea, North Korea 4 Sep-21: Koreas Push 2032 Olympics for IOC Consideration

‘Change’ can be hard to accept. But at last count, like it or not, there well over 30 locations around the globe who have expressed early interest in Hosting in 2036. It’s why Thomas Bach said this recently: The Olympics have plenty of suitors, IOC president says - 23Aug21 - Live Mint

Queensland Premier announces herself as Minister for the 2032 Olympics - 7Oct21 - Brisbane Times Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk will be the minister for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. New ministerial roles were announced on Thursday at Government House, as the state government said there was “no time to waste” in preparing for the Games. Deputy Premier Steven Miles will be the Minister Assisting the Premier on Olympics Infrastructure. Treasurer Cameron Dick will be Minister for Trade and Investment, while Tourism Minister Stirling Hinchliffe will be the Minister Assisting the Premier on Olympics and Paralympics Sport and Engagement. “Hosting the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games will be the biggest single transformational project in Queensland’s history,” Ms Palaszczuk said.

No, Brisbane’s sub-tropical weather is fine in July and August and has much the same “winter” as many northern hemisphere Summers. There was no caving in regarding Brisbane’s 2032 Games Hosting dates - never. They have always proposed and wanted the Games to be held in July August as the State of Queensland’s weather in July and August is gorgeous - perfect for athletes. Whereas Sydney and Melbourne are cold and wet much further south. Sydney 2000 was given special two-week dispensation to open their Games on 15 September. But it was after those Games, NBC put their foot down. The previous traditional bidding contests with a dramatic host announcment ended with the 2019 election of Milano-Cortina for 2026 pitted against Are-Stockholm under the old broken bidding rules which are gone, gone, gone, thank goodness. It’s not bidding anymore. It’s one to one dialogue with the IOC Future Host Commission. The first election under the New Norm massive changes made to whole process occurred on 21 July 2021 with Brisbane’s election has 2032 host. Under the new system, a bunch of interested parties can be in the Continuous Dialogue phase, but only one will be elevated to the Targeted Dialogue phase for possible election. That’s the way it works now and it’s generated massive early interest from all round the globe in hosting in 2036. 118 reforms to the old broken bidding system. We’ll see how 2030, 2034 and 2036 pans out and who bet’s elevated for Targeted Dialogue. Whoever does will likely be put up for a vote as Host for those Games The IOC’s New Norm << click on the link

Yes, NBC long have had considerable influence over the Games and events timings because of the million of $$ they pay for broadcast rights. That is public knowledge and has been that way for many years. In the recent Tokyo Games for instance, it was NBC who influenced the IOC and FINA to hold the swimming finals in the mornings so that it was prime time back in the States. The International Sporting Federations also are consulted and have considerable influence with the scheduling of Games Dates, and event timings.

Doha, Qatar is not going to get an Olympic Games in that oven-like heat in July/August where it is often 40 degrees celcius at 2am. The IOC and the International sporting federations will not allow it. NBC will also not allow an Olympic Games to be held outside the July/August timeslot.

Credit: All eyes on Brisbane, but NRL grand final still just a dress rehearsal - 2Oct21 - Brisbane Times Brisbane Organising Committee for the Olympic Games: this month Premier Anasatcia Ms Palaszczuk will introduce legislation in State Parliament to set up BOCOG. In just over decade from now, Brisbane will host the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games “Not since Barcelona in 1992 has an Olympic host been better able to capitalise on hosting a Games,” Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk reminded everyone in her State of the State address on Thursday. The multibillion-dollar City Deal between all levels of government needs to be sorted out. All projects supporting the Games need to be identified, chosen, designed, approved, re-examined, tendered, built and tested. Decisions on the Gabba upgrade need to made, along with the fast rail proposal after a lukewarm reception so far. Brisbane City Council: Its Brisbane Metro megabus project might link to Brisbane Airport with its new international terminal by the time the Olympics roll around. The Queensland government’s underground Cross River Rail project will better link the coasts and provide improved links to Brisbane sports and entertainment venues, although how much remains a matter of contention. Transport Minister Mark Bailey said, in the first instance, it would make catching buses and trains to Olympic venues easier “Commuters catching the train will be able to get from the CBD to the main Olympics stadium at the Gabba in less than five minutes, or get out of the Roma Street underground and head to the Brisbane Olympics venue that will be built in that precinct for the Games,” Mr Bailey said.

Brisbane announced as 2032 Olympic Games host city at IOC meeting in Tokyo - 21July2021 - ABC News Australia

Why do you think that Doha 2032 never progressed past the Dialogue stage? It is a safety issue for the athletes. It is a bloody oven in Doha, and the IOC will not countenance athletes, officials and spectators dropping like flies with heat stress. You cannot hold the many outdoor Olympic events like the Marathon, Triathlon, Road Cycling, etc in a Doha in an air conditioned stadium. The IOC won’t allow it even if the July/August rules were changed. The IOC’s New Norm reforms has generated a huge wave in interest for hosting in 2036 following Brisbane’s recent election. As a result, the IOC are now triumphant with these 118 New Norm reforms introduced in 2018. To be clear, the list below is of media reports of early interest in 2036 hosting. I’m not talking if there is, or not has been or not, any dialogue with the IOC, nor am I talking about the actual chances of each of getting the Games …..these are purely media reports of interest shown by these in possibly hosting in 2036. As we know, early interest is just that … and often nothing more. But it is a bloody long list. 2036 Interested Parties Media Reports Ahmedabad 14 Jul-21: Olympic Bid: Two agencies in fray to create roadmap for Ahmedabad – Times of India 2036 Olympics in Ahmedabad - 24Aug21 - Times of India Berlin, Tel Aviv 16 Apr-21: German officials expresses support for a Tel Aviv-Berlin Olympics in 2036 Budapest 3 Sep-21: “Budapest 2032 Committee" officially renamed as Hungarian capital continues pursuit to host Olympic Games Nanjing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dalian, Xi'an, Chengdu, Jinan, Xiamen, Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Suzhou 12 bidding cities for the 2036 Olympic Games - 2Oct21 - MINNEWS Odessa Odessa bid for 2036 Olympic Games possible, Ukrainian politician Kolesnikov moots - 30Sep21 - Inside The Games Florence, Bologna, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna 21 Jul-21: Florence, Bologna, Tuscany and Emilia Romagna, Italy 2036 Olympics, Giani and Nardella: “Bringing the Summer Games to Italy shouldn’t remain a dream” - 25Jul21 - ConradAtkinson Guadalajara Guadalajara, Mexico City, Tijuana, Monterrey, Mexico Tijuana-San Diego Olympic Project resurfaces by 2036 - 12Jul21 - Around The Rings Jakarta 23 Jul-21: Indonesia to bid for 2036 Olympics after 2032 failure After Tokyo 2020, Jakarta aims to secure ASEAN’s first Olympics - 12 Aug21 - Asean Economist Rostov-On-Don, Vladivostok, Perm, Novosibirsk, Sochi, Ufa At least six regions in Russia are interested in hosting 2036 Olympic Games - 27Sep2021 - Gamesbids.com Istanbul 14 Jul-21: Istanbul Mayor launches bid for 2036 Olympic Games We are Assertive in bringing 2036 Games to Istanbul - 30Aug21 - Railly News London, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester 4 May-21: Khan targets 2036 or 2040 Olympic and Paralympic bid if re-elected London Mayor Olympic hosting ground looms after Tokyo - 24Sep2021 - Bolly Inside Madrid Madrid Mayor denies Spanish capital has joined 2036 Olympic bid race, but door is open - 23 Sep21 - Gamesbids.com Madrid Enters 2036 Race, or Not? - 24Sep21 - SwimSwam Montreal, Toronto 3 Feb-21: Montreal and Toronto, Canada’s new Olympic bet Olympic hosting ground looms after Tokyo - 24Sep2021 - Bolly Inside Rhine Rhur 12 Jul-21: German Olympic Bid Embraces Flexibility South Korea, North Korea 4 Sep-21: Koreas Push 2032 Olympics for IOC Consideration Sorry, I got off topic.

It’s the unsafe extremely hot weather conditions that will stop a July/Augustbid from Qatar dead in it’s tracks. July/August temperatures in Qatar are far too unsafe for all involved, athletes, officials, spectators particularly outdoor events, even at night. The 2022 World Cup is being held in Nov/Dec in air conditioned stadiums. The IOC’s new rules are simply not going to allow an Olympic Games be held in November or December - period.
