It is filled with Art, Culture, History, and is of course infused with the Breton culture that can be seen at every corner of the city. To honor this heritage, we have chosen to have the Opening Ceremony at the heart of the city, in the \u2018Couvent des Jacobins\u2019, an ancient 14th century convent turned into a Congress center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A small and friendly City<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rennes is nicknamed, rightfully, the \u00ab&nbsp;fifteen minutes&nbsp;\u00bb city, as everything is accessible on foot or by public transport in this time frame. As such, competitions will mostly be accessible by public transportation, with the exception of a few disciplines, for which shuttles will be organized (details in the Sports and Venues section). But, no worry, these are located at a maximum of 20 min from the city center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A sports\u2019 City<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rennes has 395 sports facilities accessible to everyone and regularly hosts major sports events and competitions. Its inhabitants show strong enthusiasm for football, and its Stade Rennais (Roazhon Park) is the place to be whenever a match is organized. Another major place for sports gatherings is the Glaz Arena, where we have decided to host you for the Closing ceremony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A green and sustainable City<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rennes is the second greenest city in France. The Breton capital is also one of the five French cities labeled Innovative and Sustainable Destination by Bureau Veritas, a national standard managed by the \u2018France Congress and Event network\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Destination Rennes, its Tourist Office, is labeled ISO 20121. This international norm is a reference in terms of responsible management of events activities and recognizes the exemplary nature of the actions undertaken to welcome tourists and participants in professional events.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tourisme-rennes.com\/en\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.interagencygames.org\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Ville-de-RENNES_Noir.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7329\" style=\"width:312px;height:auto\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-85ce00c144c88b16c9674a59e6252b7f\"><em><strong>It is thanks to the precious help from the Rennes municipality, the Sports Directorate of Rennes City and Metropole, and Destination Rennes (Tourist Office) that we are thrilled to be able to welcome you there for this 50<sup>th<\/sup> Edition.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size has-small-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.interagencygames.org\/newsite\/?page_id=6968\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(252,185,0) 0%,rgb(188,23,130) 100%)\">Back to IAG 2025 Homepage<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As previously announced, the 50th UN Inter-agency Games will be held from 14-18 May 2025 in Rennes, France.
