Only one city submitted a bid to host the 2011 Pan American Games and Parapan Games that was recognized by the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO). Guadalajara, Mexico was selected by PASO unanimously as the host for 16th Pan American Games on Friday, June 2, 2006, at its 44th general assembly held in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Guadalajara was the only city to officially bid for the 2011 Pan American Games; this may have been in part due to no announced and/or open candidature period for the event.
