Global Vote Opens to Name 7 Wonders of Future Cities
New7Wonders has launched worldwide public voting to select urban developments shaping tomorrow's cities, with a launch ceremony held in New Clark City, Philippines.
A global public vote to crown the Seven Wonders of Future Cities officially opened after a ceremonial "ignition" event hosted in New Clark City, Philippines, the New7Wonders organization announced. Voting is accessible worldwide at www.7wondersfc.com, inviting participants from every nation to weigh in on the urban developments they believe are defining the cities of tomorrow.
New Clark City's selection as the venue for the launch ceremony underscores its status as one of the candidate developments under consideration — a purpose-built metropolis in the Philippines designed to serve as a model for sustainable, disaster-resilient urban planning. The event signals the campaign's entry into its most consequential phase, with the general public now empowered to shape the final outcome.
The New7Wonders Foundation has previously organized globally recognized voting campaigns, most notably the 2007 initiative that produced the modern New Seven Wonders of the World. That precedent established the organization's capacity to mobilize tens of millions of voters across cultural and geographic boundaries, lending significant weight to the current urban-focused effort.
The Future Cities campaign arrives at a moment when rapid urbanization, climate adaptation, and smart-infrastructure investment are reshaping how governments and developers approach city building. By spotlighting standout projects through public recognition, organizers aim to amplify awareness of innovative approaches to urban growth that could serve as blueprints for municipalities worldwide.
