Overview
- Ayacucho will stage boxing, taekwondo, kickboxing, wushu and MTB cross-country after unfinished works forced multiple sports to shift to Lima.
- The Comptroller reported only about 18% progress on the flagship stadium and flagged S/92 million in advances without required guarantees, triggering a fiscal investigation.
- The IPD said the Cuna de la Libertad/Cumaná project is not an official venue and announced a management review under new president Sergio Ludeña with Contraloría oversight.
- The Defensoría warned days before the opening that hotel and meal bookings in Ayacucho were not confirmed, while Odebo said basic services have now been guaranteed.
- The opening ceremony was relocated to the Real Felipe in Callao, and organizers noted some program changes also reflect minimum participation requirements for certain sports.
