The 2021 Canada Summer Games,[1][2] officially known as the XXVIII Canada Games, or the a.k.a. 'Niagara Games', is the summer season portion of the Canada Games and a multi-sport event for amateur athletes which will take place August 6-21, 2022 in the Niagara Region of Ontario, Canada. There are 21 sporting events in total. It will mark the 28th time the event has been held. The summer games in 2022 will still be called the '2021' games, even though they've been postponed to 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada.

The games were originally scheduled to be held in Niagara Region, Ontario, from August 6 to 21, 2021.[3] However in September 2020 the Canada Games Council announced that the 2021 Canada Summer Games had been postponed to 2022 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada.[4]

Box lacrosse will be returning to the Canada Summer Games during the 2021 event for the first time since the 1980s.[5]
