The Data Behind the Numbers
The participant figures shown in this infographic are drawn from official EuroGames organisational records and contemporary event reporting. The Nijmegen 2022 figure of 6,000+ participants represents registered competing athletes; total event attendance including spectators and supporters was considerably higher.
The growth trajectory shown – from roughly 300 participants in 1992 to over 6,000 in 2022 – reflects a 20-fold increase over three decades, driven by the growing visibility of LGBTQ+ sport, improvements in event organisation, and the expansion of the European LGBTQ+ sports club network.
