The 2024 Bolivarian Youth Games (Spanish: Juegos Bolivarianos de la Juventud 2024), officially known as the I Bolivarian Youth Games "Sucre 2024" and simply known as Sucre 2024, will be the first edition of the Bolivarian Youth Games, a regional multi-sport event for athletes of up to 19 years old, organized by the Organización Deportiva Bolivariana (ODEBO). Originally scheduled to be held in Sucre, Bolivia from 17 April to 1 May 2020, the inaugural edition of the Bolivarian Youth Games underwent several postponements until it was definitively scheduled to be held from 4 to 14 April 2024.

Host city and date changes

ODEBO launched the Bolivarian Youth Games for the first time in 2010 with Lima, Peru to be the host city of the first edition in 2015. In February 2015, the event was postponed in order to establish the age limit for athletes as well as the sports program and a new date for the Games. In July 2015, during its Extraordinary General Assembly, ODEBO moved the Games to 2016, keeping Lima as host city.

In January 2016, ODEBO approved the age range for athletes following the same criteria as the International Olympic Committee for the Youth Olympic Games, and the Games were moved to 2019. In 2017, the Games were again rescheduled, this time for 2020, and Peru resigned to host the Games, giving way to Sucre, Bolivia being named as the new host city on 10 November 2017.

Early 2019, the Games were scheduled to be held between 17 April and 1 May 2020, but were then rescheduled for 17–30 October 2020 due to the 2019 Bolivian protests, and later for 5–18 December 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In May 2020, ODEBO decided to reschedule the games from 24 April to 7 May 2021 and in December 2020 it rescheduled the event again, this time from 27 November to 9 December 2021 at the request of the Organizing Committee due to the health emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic prevailing at that time.

In October 2021, the Games were postponed to 2022 due to lack of funding and to avoid a clash with the 2021 Junior Pan American Games (25 November–5 December). In April 2022, ODEBO and Bolivian authorities reactivate the organization of the event, setting April 2023 as the new date for the Games. In August 2022, ODEBO's President Baltazar Medina confirmed the First Bolivarian Youth Games in Sucre from 30 November–9 December 2023 as new tentative dates, which were confirmed in January 2023. Finally, in April 2023, the Games were rescheduled for the last time to take place between 5 and 14 April 2024 in order to allow more time for the organization and to coincide with Sucre's bicentennial commemorative activities.
