Approximately 6,000 people participated in activities organized by the Kosovo Olympic Committee over the course of seven days to mark Olympic Day 2025.

Twenty-six municipalities, five sports federations, and dozens of primary schools contributed various activities, thanks in part to cooperation with the Kosovo School Sport Federation.

The main event was held in Prishtina, where over 1,000 elementary school children took part in the Olympic Run, practiced different athletic disciplines, and enjoyed an artistic program.

In his address, the President of the Kosovo Olympic Committee, Ismet Krasniqi, emphasized the importance of Olympic Day and encouraged children to engage in physical activity, reminding them of this year’s motto: “Let’s Move.”

In addition to involving children, the KOC also organized two tournaments: a football tournament featuring 11 different institutions, and a padel tournament — a sport that is rapidly growing in Kosovo.

During the final two days, walks were organized by the University Sports Federation and flights by the Aeronautical Federation of Kosovo.
