The host city was announced on 1 December 2017.[2] However, they were cancelled in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in El Salvador and the hosting rights were later given to Guatemala and Costa Rica. In 2022, the games were cancelled again after the IOC threatened to suspend the Guatemalan Olympic Committee.[3]
