On February 22, a stamp dedicated to the International Multi-Sport Tournament Games of the Future was put into postal circulation

Games of the Future is a broad-scale sporting event at the intersection of sport, science and technology, a synergy of classical and digital sports. The Festival will take place from February 21 to March 3 of 2024 in Kazan.

The international competitions will be held in 16 hybrid disciplines. Each of them embodies the fijital (physical+digital) concept, i.e. combines physical culture and cybersport or the VR/AR technology, thus testing athletes' skills in two so far unrelated dimensions. The competition will bring together about two thousand participants, the expected number of viewings on streaming platforms is above 150 million viewers.

The main venue for the Games of the Future in Kazan will be the Kazan Expo exhibition center. In addition, it is planned to use both sports venues and new facilities (e.g., a new IT quarter), as well as Innopolis.

The postage stamp provides an image of the Digital Flame – the emblem of the Multi-Sport Tournament Games of the Future.

In addition to the issue of the postage stamp, JSC Marka produced First Day Covers and special cancels for Moscow and Kazan and an illustrated cover with the postage stamp, a label and a First Day Cover with a cancel for Kazan.
