The Closing Ceremony of the 2018 Mediterranean Games in Tarragona, Spain took place on July 1, bringing an amazing spectacle of sport to an end. The Games, which spanned the week of June 22-July 1, brought together more than 4500 athletes representing 26 countries in 28 sports and 244 individual contests. 

Italy, which fielded 419 athletes, more than any other country, dominated the event and brought home 156 medals including 56 gold. Host country Spain finished 2nd in the overall medal count, followed by Turkey, France and Egypt.

The Mediterranean Games provides an unbelievable platform for athletes to compete on an international stage. Through sport, athletes show that people from all walks of life and society are able to compete respectfully and fairly. Each country fields their best athletes in competition and afterwards, throughout the week, men and women live together in an open athlete village. The opportunity to compete brings with it opportunities to meet and mingle with others who share similar passions from all over the the Mediterranean Region.
