Two novelties that expand European events to other continents were announced. The first refers to the basketball Euroleague, which in the 2026/27 season will feature Dubai Basketball for the second consecutive season, a team from the United Arab Emirates. Dubai will play in this competition in just a month, which is considered the main basketball competition in Europe, described as the "champions league" of this sport.
Among the teams participating in the Euroleague are the usual Real Madrid and Barcelona from Spain, champions Olympiacos and Panathinaikos from Greece, and Partizan from Belgrade, among other European clubs.
The second novelty mentioned is Canada's participation in Eurovision, although the article appears to be incomplete and does not provide more details on this issue.
Both situations illustrate how traditionally European events are expanding to include participants from other continents, no longer being exclusive to European countries.
