Design your medal

Choose the format you prefer, let your creativity flow and show us what you think the official medal of the Youth Olympic Games Gangwon 2024 should look like.

When designing your medal, you must respect the following guidelines:

• The competition is to design the obverse of the medal only (the reverse side will be designed by the Gangwon 2024 Youth Olympic Games Organising Committee (Gangwon 2024)).
• Your design (the front) should reflect the spirit of the Winter Youth Olympic Games, while the reverse side will be designed by Gangwon 2024 and reflect elements of Korean culture and the YOG emblem.
• The border of your design must be circular in shape, with no elements cut out.
• The Olympic rings must appear somewhere in your design.
• The Olympic rings must always be reproduced in their pure form. They may not be altered, formed from other elements or cut. Find the Olympic symbol guidelines here.
• Do not add text to your design, except if you wish to use the words Youth Olympic Games.
• For more information, read the Rules of the Youth Olympic Games Medal Design Competition to help create your design.

Please find examples of previous Medal Design Competition winners here: Lillehammer 2016, Buenos Aires 2018 and Lausanne 2020.
