2026 World Rowing Championships


The 54th World Rowing Championships will be held from 24 to 30 August 2026 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, under the organization of World Rowing and the Royal Dutch Rowing Federation.
The event will take place at the Bosbaan, the venue that had previously hosted the World Rowing Championships of 1977 and 2014. The Bosbaan is undergoing extensive renovations in order to be ready for the 2026 championship.
Unlike all previous World Rowing Championships, the event will have a dual leadership. Former Olympic champions Ilse Paulis and Nico Rienks will jointly take on the role of Regatta Director.
