Time for the formalities - first with the BOCOG President followed by the CGF President.

Presumably the Victoria handover will happen after the speeches

You’d think other UK cities will be keen to host soon after this. There aren’t many countries that are capable/willing to host these games outside of the UK and Aus. But it’s the closest to hosting an Olympics you can get without hosting the Olympics but not many cities want that either these days.

I would hazard a bet that the 2030 Games will return to Canada for the centenary of the Commonwealth Games, though that's assuming Canada don't end up hosting the Winter Olympics for year. But beyond 2030, I wouldn't be surprised if the UK end up hosting the games again
