The 2026 Commonwealth Games (officially known as the XXIII Commonwealth Games) was a multi-sport event held in Glasgow, Scotland, from 23 July to 2 August 2026.[1] A total of 215 medal events were contested across ten sports (16 disciplines).[2]
Rules
The ranking in this table is consistent with Commonwealth Sport convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals won by the athletes from an entity represented by a Commonwealth Games Association, followed by the number of silver and bronze medals respectively. If the nations are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their three-letter country code.
Each event is awarded a gold, a silver, and a bronze medal for the top three finishers respectively. However, two bronze medals are awarded in all the boxing and judo events. In boxing, both the losing semifinalists are awarded bronze medals, while the losing semifinalists compete with the winner of the repechage contests for the bronze medals in judo.
