The World Dwarf Games are the largest international sporting event held exclusively for athletes with dwarfism. Its goal is to attract athletes with dwarfism from around the world to participate in sports.
The 8th World Dwarf Games were held from 28th July - 5th August 2023 at the Deutsche Sport Hochschule (German Sports University) in Cologne, Germany. Athletes of all ages and every level of ability participated in team and individual sports and explored their own athletic abilities with others of similar stature. More than 500 athletes from over 20 countries competed in Cologne, Germany.
