Four cities submitted bids to host the 2019 Pan American Games and Parapan games that were recognized by the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO), all four of which made the PASO Executive Committee's shortlist. PASO selected a host city for the 2019 Pan American Games at the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel in Toronto, Canada on October 11, 2013, which Lima won. The other shortlisted cities were Santiago, Chile, La Punta, Argentina, and Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela.[1]
Lima won an absolute majority of votes after just one round of voting, eliminating the need for subsequent rounds of voting. PASO delegates and the media identified a number of factors in its favor, including the size of the country, safety, experience in staging multi sporting events, government guarantees, security and cleanliness.
Host city selection
On May 1, 2013, the National Olympic Committee (NOC) members of PASO were informed of the confirmation of the four candidate cities to host the 2019 Pan American Games. Each city was required to pay a deposit of $50,000 by that date, in which each one fulfilled, in order to continue with the election process. From April 30 to May 8, the Evaluation Commission carried out its visits to Ciudad Bolivar, La Punta, Santiago de Chile and Lima, in that order.[2]
Lima was selected as the host city for the 2019 Pan American Games on October 11, 2013 by PASO at the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel in Toronto, Canada on October 11, 2013.[1]

Peruvian Olympic Committee (COP) | Winner | ||
Lima 2019 was a successful bid for the 2019 Pan American Games by the president of the Peruvian Institute of Sport and the Peruvian Olympic Committee.[3] The Pan American Village was planned to be located in El Callao, with a capacity of 9,000 people on 43 hectares (430,000 m2) in 60 buildings.[4] Lima had previously submitted a bid for the Pan American Games to host the 2015 Pan American Games, but lost out to Toronto.[5] On the Olympic circuit, Peru hosted the 1990 South American Games, the 1947 Bolivarian Games, the 1997 Bolivarian Games, and the 2012 Bolivarian Beach Games.[4] | |||||

Chilean Olympic Committee (COCH) | First runner-up | |
During the 2011 Pan American Games, the Chilean capital had been lobbying for these games, and stated their 2014 South American Games venues are being built to high Panamerican standards.[6] Their interest was confirmed in March 2012 when the Secretary of Sports and the President of the Chilean Olympic Committee presented their bid at the Assembly of the Pan American Sports Organization.[7][8][9] The city of Santiago proposed to have the 2019 Pan American Games held from October 8 to 25, and the city estimated a budget of US$658 million for funding the Games. The Pan American Village was planned to have 26 apartment buildings, shopping areas, a press and television center, pools and recreation areas, and 115,000 square meters of green areas.[4] Although the bid failed, Santiago was elected to host the 2023 Pan American Games in 2017.[10] | |||||

Argentine Olympic Committee (COA) | First runner-up | |
On June 14, 2012, the Argentine Olympic Committee selected La Punta, San Luis to be put forward as Argentina's bidding city for the 2019 Pan American Games. The city was selected over Rosario by a vote of 30 to 20.[11] La Punta aimed to hold the first fully sustainable Pan American Games, with the use of hybrid transport, wind and solar energy, and the "Plant Awareness, Plant a Tree" campaign, where each athlete competing in the Games would plant a tree. To that end, the Pan American Village was to be called the Pan American Green Village. The city's budget for the Games was to be split into three parts: sports infrastructure and the Green Village, refurbishment not related to sports facilities (such as airport and highways), and operation expenditure.[4] In addition to La Punta's bid for the Pan American Games, Buenos Aires bid to host the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics and was elected as the host city on July 4, 2013.[12] | |||||

Venezuelan Olympic Committee (COV) | Third runner-up | |
The city of Ciudad Bolívar proposed to hold the 2019 Pan American Games from September 20 to October 6, 2019, with the 2019 Parapan American games held from October 20 to November 30, citing that the city would be "surrounded by a landscape of lush beautiful greenery." With an estimated a budget of US$1.5 billion (VEB 9.6 billion) for funding the Games, the city planned to develop the outskirts of the city, such as building world-class sports facilities, hotels, and the 292 hectares (1.13 sq mi) Pan American village. The village was expected to hold 12,000 athletes and officials and would have encompassed a total number of 68, five-story buildings, such as offices, stores, and gyms.[4] |
