The2013Summer Universiade, officially known as theXXVII Summer Universiade (Russian:XXVII Летняя Универсиада;Tatar:XXVII Җәйге Универсиада), was held in the city ofKazan, Russia, the most northerly city ever to host a Summer Universiade.[2] Over 10,400 university athletes from 162 countries participated in 13 mandatory and 14 optional sports,[citation needed] making the 2013 Universiade the biggest ever in the history of the event. For the first time in history a Cultural Universiade was also included, with many festivals and shows held simultaneously with the sporting events. The Universiade was organized by theInternational University Sports Federation (FISU) and by the authorities of the Russian Federation.
Kazan had bid twice for the Universiade; the first attempt was for the2011 Summer Universiade, but Kazan lost toShenzhen by just two votes. The city was the only bidder for the 2013 Summer Universiade, and was acclaimed as host city by FISU.
Prior to the Universiade,Kazan International Airport was totally rebuilt as a hub, the new Kazan-2 transit rail-bus terminal was built, the old Kazan-1 rail terminal was rebuilt, and the fast railaeroexpress withSiemens trains was inaugurated between the Kazan-1 rail terminal downtown and the airport.
Zones of activity of the Universiade were connected by renewed highways with two-level flyovers, including the completed "Big Kazan Ring" with a newLRT (fast tram). In addition, a Kremlin bridge over theKazanka River was rebuilt. The key transportation connector to the sporting and other venues from the Universiade Village was theKazan Metro (subway) that had been built in 2005 and was expanded before the Universiade.
A large part of design works was carried out by JSC Institute Tatdorproject (autoroads, pedestrian crosses, transport junctions),Roszheldorproject (arrangement of intermodal transportation), Energoprojekt (reconstruction ofKazan International Airport), etc.
The Cultural Universiade was held in the Cultural Park at Palace Square downtown near theKazan Kremlin, at various theatres and performance venues in the Kremlin, and at other places throughout the city.
A total of 27 new stadia were built as venues for the event. The Games used 64 venues in all, 36 of which were constructed specifically for the 2013 Summer Universiade. The 64 venues were concentrated in 4 zones across the city of Kazan. These included the area of Pobeda Avenue with the Kazan Area, the Aquatics Palace of Water Sports, the Combat Sports (Boxing) Palace, and the area of Orenburgsky Trakt where theUniversiade Village was located, as well as the Tennis Academy and Gymnastics Palace. In addition, many sports venues for training functions were located elsewhere in Zarechye (Novo-Savinovsky and Airbuilders districts), and some of them in downtownKazan.

The Universiade Village is a residential neighborhood for 14,500 residents that was constructed within theKazan Federal University campus to house competitors and officials during the Kazan 2013 Summer Universiade.Nearly 400 sporting and cultural events have been staged on the campus since it opened its doors in 2010. Shortly after the first move-in phase, an open-airstep aerobics marathon was held that brought together up to 1,000 Universiade Village residents. The campus had already hostedfootball,volleyball, andchess championships that can rightfully be called 'international' as a number of international students competed in them.
The length of the relay was about 104,000 kilometers, and 2,013 torchbearers were enlisted to participate in the relay. After touring through 51 cities on five continents, the torch arrived inVladivostok on 24 January, and on 25 January, the Russian leg of the Universiade torch relay began.

The Universiade Torch Relay celebrations took place in 30 cities acrossRussia, as well as 44 cities and towns of municipal districts ofTatarstan.

Russia got almost half of gold medals and more than a quarter of all medals. This is more than any other nation in this games and in the history of Universiades. The media explained this by the fact that the Russian team featured nineteen reigning Olympic champions, who were all listed as students, more than all other teams taken together, in an apparent attempt to make a good impression in Russian language media.[19] There were 67 Universiade records, 38 of them set by Russian athletes.
On 19 July 2013,Vladimir Putin congratulated Russian athletes, and responded to criticism by saying that all critics of Russia's [calling it USSR] achievements should takeViagra.[20]

Every Universiade logo must contain the Latin letter "U", designating a sporting event held under the auspices of theInternational University Sports Federation (FISU). The logo of the 2013 Summer Universiade represents a vertical rectangular design that comprises the words "Universiade", "Kazan", "Russia", "2013" and the five stars of theInternational University Sports Federation (FISU).
The emblem of the 2013 Summer Universiade takes its origin from an image of atulip, a common element of Tatar ornaments that symbolizes revival.
Uni, a kitten rendering of the symbolic wingedsnow leopard, was chosen as the mascot for the Kazan 2013 Summer Universiade. The winged snow leopard is the national symbol of theRepublic of Tatarstan. A stylized version of this creature is represented on Tatarstan's coat of arms.
Each Universiade host city chooses a slogan for their edition of the Games, according to their ideals and goals, and as approved byFISU. The slogan of the Kazan 2013 Summer Universiade was 'U are the world', which has two meanings: 'You are the world' and 'Universiade is the World'.
The League of Partners was founded in November 2010 to ensure a multilateral partnership between business circles and the Kazan 2013 Organizing Committee. The League includes the companies that signed partnership agreements with the executive committee of the 27th World University Summer Games. The main mission of the League of Partners is to enlist the support of corporations through a partnership contract with the Kazan 2013 Executive Committee, and also to consolidate all efforts under the unified vision of the Universiade. To achieve that, the partner companies were to implement joint projects aimed at further developing specialized industries that will be part of the Kazan 2013 legacy.
Tickets price ran between 700 and 6000 Russian rubles for the opening and closing ceremonies, and 30 to 200 RR for sporting events. Tickets began to be sold on the Internet one year before the Universiade.
Some 1,200 journalists from 170 countries were assisted by the Main Press Center (MPC), theInternational Broadcasting Center (IBC) at Kazan Arena, and the International Info Center at Universiade Village.
The games were televised byEurosport as well as by 12 other international and three Russian TV networks.
After the Universiade, the venues and stadia were to be consigned over to high schools and universities of Kazan, to children and youth sport schools, and toOlympic reserve schools. The Universiade Village was to be integrated into the main campus of theFederal University system.
TheCentral Bank of Russia issued commemorative coins dedicated to the 27th Summer Universiade Kazan 2013, including silver 3-ruble and 25-ruble, and gold 50-ruble, coins along with 10,000 ruble coins soon to appear in the banks of Russia. The bank also planned to put into circulation two kinds of 10-ruble base-metal coins to mark the Universiade. These commemorative coins are accepted without limitation for all types of payment as legal tender in theRussian Federation.[22]
The results of the athlete from 4 July 2012 to 12 July 2016 will be canceled.
