Representatives from 90 countries join to revive Modern Pythian Games

Representatives from 90 countries have come together to form the International Pythian Council and join the revival of the Modern Pythian Games offering a single global platform for the vibrant exchange of arts, culture, traditional, adventure, entertainment, games, e-sports, air sports, and martial arts.

Organised by Delphic India Trust, the concept will see the Modern Pythian Games held every four year and aims to provide new hope with its multilevel structure, help national economies, promote tourism, and create jobs for artisans and stakeholders.

The first Pythian Games will be held in 2027, the Junior Pythian Games in 2025, and the Para Pythian Games in 2024.

Bijender Goel, the founder of Delphic India trust and International Pythian council that holds the intellectual property rights for the 'Modern Pythian Games' notes  “the Pythian Games had been part of the Pan Hellenic Games in ancient Greece since 582 B.C. and were ranked second in importance behind the Olympics before the discontinuation of all Pan Hellenic games in 394 A.D.

“These games will serve as a single global platform for the vibrant exchange of arts, culture, traditional, adventure, entertainment, games, e-sports, air sports, and martial arts. These games will be an important way to bring people from different countries together through cultural diplomacy.”
