There is no doubt that mega-sporting events and terrorism are two major themes of contemporary scien-tific and social interest. However, this draws attention to the fact that these same issues have been rarely analysed together. While it is true that recently the lack of research on this topic has been declining, proba-bly as a result of the increasing num-ber of terrorist actions in mega-sporting events, we still have a theo-retical and practical route to go.The analysis of the relationship between spectator sports and terrorism can provide the opportunity to under-stand and try to prevent one of the risks that our way of life faces, rep-resented as a spectacularized tragedy in the contemporary mega-sporting events. But it also offers an oppor-tunity – perhaps one of the contribu-tions that science applied to sport can make- for understanding socio-political and global level keys by an-alyzing the motivations of the terror-ist groups for acting on these mega-sporting events. A kind of events that, in our contemporary societies, have become the new cathedrals of worship to our way of life. The main risk seems to be the perception of risk itself or, in other words, to feel that the stadiums where we are spectators of the game of life become spaces where you can put life at stake. In order to lay the groundwork for criminological research on the re-lationship between mega-sporting events and terrorism, this communi-cation aims to: 1. summarize the state of the art as a result of the liter-ature review, 2. define the crimino-logical dimensions of the phenome-non, and 3. propose a preliminary approach to the topic from the point of view of environmental criminolo-gy.
