It took place from July 3 to July 14, 2015. Bid selection The cities of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; Taipei, Taiwan; and Gwangju, South Korea were in initial contention for the Games. Edmonton previously hosted the 1983 Summer Universiade, and all the infrastructure built for those two events was in use and was part of the project, which gave the city a big advantage, but the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008 led the city to withdraw. This left only Gwangju and Taipei at the final phase. On May 23, 2009, FISU awarded the hosting rights to Gwangju.Universiades for 2015 attributed https://web.archive.org/web/20100706033400/http://www.fisu.net/en/FISU-Attributes-2015-Universiades-2644.html?idProduit=201 2010-07-06 Venues Gwangju Gwangju World Cup Stadium: ceremonies, athletics Dongkang College Gymnasium: basketball Yeomju Gymnasium: volleyball Nambu University International Aquatics Center: swimming, diving Yeomju Indoor Aquatics Center: water polo Yeomju Bitgoeul Gymnasium: judo Gwangju Women's University Universiade Gymnasium: gymnastics Honam University Football Field: football Jinwol International Tennis Court: tennis Yeomju Indoor Tennis Court: tennis Kim Dae-Jung Convention Center: fencing Gwangju KIA Champions Field: baseball Mudeung Baseball Stadium: baseball Gwangju International Archery Center: archery Chosun University Gymnasium: taekwondo Honam University Gymnasium: volleyball Gwangju University Gymnasium: basketball South Jeolla (Jeonnam) Boseong Boseong Public Stadium: football Gurye Gurye Indoor Gymnasium: handball Hwasun Hwasun Hanium Culture Sports Center: badminton Jangseong Jangseong Hong Gil-Dong Gymnasium: table tennis Jangseong Lake : marathon swimming Mokpo Mokpo International Football Center: football Muan Muan Indoor Stadium: basketball Naju Dongshin University Gymnasium: volleyball Naju Public Stadium: football Naju Gold Lake Country Club: golf Naju, South Jeolla Province Shooting Range: shooting Naju Indoor Stadium: handball Suncheon Palma Gymnasium: volleyball Yeonggwang Yeonggwang Sportium Gymnasium: basketball Yeonggwang Sportium Football Field: football North Jeolla (Jeonbuk) Gochang Gochang County Gymnasium: handball Gochang Public Stadium: football Jeongeup Jeongeup Public Stadium: football North Chungcheong (Chungbuk) Chungju Tangeum Lake: rowing Identity Mascot thumb|Nuribi, the official mascot The official mascot of the 2015 Summer Universiade is an angel of light named Nuribi.
