If you are going to see these sporting events, you will need to check out our sporting event calendar. Which of these should be on your bucket list - the must see sporting events before you die? Maybe start with the world's most popular sporting events — they are popular for a reason.

Must See Sports Lists

We have come across quite a few lists of must see sports. The lists are not the same, many different sports are included. The FINA World Cup and the Olympic Games are hard to argue with, but other events on the lists may be harder to choose, as people around the world have different sporting interests.

7 Wonders Project

We have previously created the list sporting venues in 7 Wonders of the Sporting World (Venues), which are all about stadiums and other sporting venues. However, the reason we are there at the stadium is to watch a sporting contest, which makes it special. That is why we have created a much-anticipated list of the Top-7 Wonders of the Sporting World - Sporting Events List.
