The 2020 ASEAN Para Games, officially known as the 10th ASEAN Para Games, is a cancelled biannual multi-sport event for athletes with physical disabilities which was intended to be held after the 2019 Southeast Asian Games in the Philippines. Participants were expected from 11 countries in Southeast Asia. The games, patterned after the Paralympics, was to include athletes with various disabilities.
Originally scheduled to be held from 3 to 9 October 2020, but due to the COVID-19 situation in the Philippines, the Games had to be cancelled as there was no other choice.
This was to have been the second time Philippines hosting the ASEAN Para Games with the first being in 2005.[2]
The Games was initially set to be held in at the second week of January 2020[3] but was delayed to March 2020, about three months after the 2019 Southeast Asian Games, due to financial and logistical constraints despite it is only five months prior to the 2020 Summer Paralympics. The sporting event was postponed for a second time, to October 3 to 9, 2020, due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic. This followed the 2020 Summer Paralympics who were delayed to the following year for the same reason.[4]
The Games were formally canceled on May 8, after the Philippine government reallocated funds meant for the games to efforts against the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines.
