Chengdu Universiade Awarded Best Sports Event Media Facility in 2023
The Chengdu Universiade has been honored with the title of Best Sports Event Media Facility for 2023 by the International Sports Press Association (AIPS). This prestigious recognition was voted on by global sports journalists, who praised the comprehensive event for its exceptional media facilities.
Media facilities play a crucial role in ensuring that journalists have the necessary resources and working environment to cover a sporting event effectively. These facilities typically include the main press center, venue press center, media stands, mixed interview areas, and network facilities.
The Chengdu Universiade stood out as the only event to be selected for this award, highlighting the organizers’ commitment to providing top-notch media facilities. By offering a convenient and comfortable working environment for media representatives of all levels, the event has helped showcase China’s cultural influence and international soft power.
In 2022, the Beijing Winter Olympics also received this prestigious award, demonstrating China’s dedication to excellence in hosting major sporting events. The Chengdu Universiade continues this legacy by telling the story of China’s sports development through innovative audio-visual integration and a discourse that bridges the gap between China and the international community.
Through its commitment to providing outstanding media facilities, the Chengdu Universiade has succeeded in presenting a true, three-dimensional representation of China to the world. This recognition further solidifies Chengdu’s position as a leading host city for international sporting events and highlights the country’s ongoing efforts to promote Chinese culture on the global stage.
