2006 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships
The 39th World Artistic Gymnastics Championships were held in Aarhus, Denmark, from October 13 to October 21, 2006.
The International Gymnastics Federation, which celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2006, introduced a new Code of Points at the World Championships, removing the "perfect 10" in favor of an open-ended code with separate scores for the difficulty and execution of a routine.
Vanessa Ferrari won the first female gold medal for Italy in the individual all-around.
