• The full membership will make the final decision at the Commonwealth Sport General Assembly on 26 November 2025 in Glasgow.
• Ahmedabad was chosen ahead of Abuja, with officials pledging support for Nigeria’s future hosting ambitions, including potential consideration for 2034.
• The centenary edition would be India’s second time hosting after New Delhi 2010 and would draw on venues such as the 132,000-capacity Narendra Modi Stadium.
