Emblem, Mascot and Slogan
IntroductionThe emblem, mascots and slogans for the 15th National Games (NG), the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities (NGD) and the 9th National Special Olympic Games (NSOG), are key identities that showcase their visions and unique features, thus drawing wide public attention. After a global call for submissions, followed by expert evaluations and meticulous refinements, the emblem, mascots and slogans were officially unveiled on 9 November 2024.
Emblem
The emblem for the 15th NG, the 12th NGD and the 9th NSOG encapsulates the themes of “prosperity and inclusiveness” and features three intertwining and rotating petals from the cotton tree, bauhinia and lotus, each representing Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao respectively. The arrangement, inspired by the natural forms and hues of these flowers, spirals around a central core, crafting a pattern reminiscent of blooming fireworks. This artistic motif signifies not only the seamless integration and boundless vitality of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) but also its flourishing impact on the global stage, bolstered by the strong support of our country.


Mascots

The mascots for the 15th NG, the 12th NGD and the 9th NSOG are based on the Chinese white dolphin, which is the “Grade 1 National Key Protected Species”, also known as the “National Treasure of the Sea”. The two cute and adorable mascots are named “Xiyangyang” and “Lerongrong”, symbolising joy, harmony and unity.
Slogan
“Play for the Dreams in GBA” is the slogan for the 15th NG, while “Dream for the Games in GBA” is the slogan for the 12th NGD and the 9th NSOG. Both slogans align with the ethos of the Olympic Movement, and Chinese cultural values and sports spirit.
