Explainer | What’s on the agenda at the 2024 G7 summit in Italy?
- Here are key details about this week’s three-day event at the luxury Borgo Egnazia resort in southern Italy
Where is the summit being held?
The meeting is being held in Borgo Egnazia in the southern region of Puglia - a luxury hotel with a Michelin starred restaurant.
Set among olive trees and boasting its own private beach offering an array of water sports, the complex is made up of traditional-style buildings and cobbled streets lined with flowers.
Within its walls are bars, restaurants, shops and spa facilities, meaning that if they choose, guests never need leave.
On the first evening, the leaders will attend a dinner in their honour in the nearby city of Brindisi. The media centre is in the city of Bari, 80km (50 miles) from the summit venue.
Who is coming?
The G7 comprises the United States, Japan, Canada, Germany, France, Italy and Britain. The European Union participates in all discussions and is represented by the presidents of both the European Council and the European Commission.
