Major Announcement

     2024 Games Aalborg Denmark September 7 – 14

1st World Firefighters Games; Auckland, New Zealand
22 to 29 April 1990

Initially the inaugural Games hosted by the City of Auckland were perceived as a one-off Games, however their ultimate success has paved the way for future Games.

Auckland, which is locally known as the 'City of Sails', hosted a magnificent event. The manner in which the sporting events were conducted is a credit to their Fire Service. The competition, friendly people and farewell banquet were second to none.
