Global Vote Opens to Name 7 Wonders of Future Cities
New7Wonders launches worldwide public voting to identify urban developments shaping tomorrow's cities, with a ceremony held in New Clark City, Philippines.
A global public vote to select the Seven Wonders of Future Cities is now underway, organizer New7Wonders announced, opening the campaign with an official "ignition" ceremony held in New Clark City, Philippines. Voters worldwide can cast ballots at www.7wondersfc.com to weigh in on which urban developments they believe are defining the trajectory of modern city-building.
The launch event in New Clark City — itself a purpose-built urban project in the Philippines — served as a symbolic starting point for the initiative, signaling the campaign's focus on emerging and planned cities rather than historical landmarks. New7Wonders, the organization behind previous global polling campaigns, is steering the effort to spotlight forward-looking urban innovation on an international stage.

The formal announcement was made from Dubai, United Arab Emirates, a city widely associated with ambitious architectural and urban planning ambitions.
