Olympic Cup Winners

The Olympic Cup is an annual award presented by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). This award was established in 1906 by Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games. The award honors groups or organizations whose work promotes the Olympic spirit, emphasizing fair play, sportsmanship, and unity through sport.

In recent years, the trend has been for the award to recognise the host cities of Olympic and Youth Olympic Games. In 2024, the IOC awarded Olympic Cup to the people of France at a spectacular ceremony on the Champs-Élysées.

The actual Olympic Cup remains at Olympic Museum in Lausanne, instead the recipient is given a bronze plaque and a diploma.

There was no award given in 1956,1958, 1997, 2007 and 2009, and in only Olympic years since 2012.
