2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games Schedule and KBS Guide

Planning to watch events between September 19 and October 4, 2026? The 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games run for 16 days across Aichi Prefecture and Nagoya, Japan, with schedules covering 43 sports. For events involving South Korea, compare the organizing committee schedule, the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee calendar, and the latest KBS programming.

This comparison matters because a delegation roster is not a daily entry list, a departure date is not a competition start date, and KBS’s exclusive coverage plan does not confirm that every event will be shown live.

 

Dates, delegation and available information

The opening ceremony takes place on September 19 and the closing ceremony on October 4. South Korea’s delegation comprises 792 athletes and 260 officials, producing an exact total of 1,052 people rather than the simplified description of approximately 1,050.

As of September 9, 2026, the Games had not begun, so no results or medal standings were confirmed. What you can check now is the September 3 delegation roster, competition dates and venues, and the overall broadcast plan.

 

How the Asian Games schedule should be checked

  1. Select a sport on the organizing committee’s schedule.
  2. Confirm the date, venue, start time, and whether the session is a preliminary or final.
  3. Find South Korean participation in the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee’s monthly calendar.
  4. Cross-check the opponent and time in both sources.
  5. Recheck the official schedule and KBS programming on the event day.

South Korea and Japan both use UTC+9, so no time conversion is needed. An event listed for 8:00 p.m. in Japan is also at 8:00 p.m. in South Korea, reducing one source of viewing-day confusion.

 

A practical checklist before watching

  • Do not assume every sport runs throughout the full Games period.
  • Check October as well as the directly displayed September calendar.
  • Keep preliminary and final sessions separate.
  • Do not treat the full roster as that day’s entry list.
  • Use the latest KBS guide to confirm the channel and online availability.

For badminton, swimming, and table tennis, the main delegation’s departure schedule should not be used to infer the first competition date. If travel plans change, notices from the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee and the relevant sports federation take priority.

 

Where to verify every detail

The original article on Injoys brings the official-source roles together and explains how to move from the 43-sport overview to a specific South Korean event. It is especially useful when you need to distinguish the broadcast rights plan from the actual TV or online program for an individual match.

Who should check first and what to do

This guide is most relevant to viewers following the Games from September 19 to October 4, particularly those tracking South Korean athletes or KBS coverage. Anyone saving a schedule in advance should also check for updates caused by matchups or competition operations.

Start today by selecting the relevant sport on the organizing committee’s schedule, then compare it with the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee calendar. Immediately before the event, confirm participation and time again, then locate the viewing option in the latest KBS programming guide through the original article on Injoys.
