“World Aquatics could not be happier to know that the hosting of our main event for 2025 is in such good hands, thanks to the team here in Singapore,” said World Aquatics President Husain Al-Musallam. The World Aquatics Championships in 2023 will be in Fukuoka, Japan (rescheduled from 2021 and then 2022), while the 2024 World Aquatics Championships will be in Doha, Qatar, prior to the Paris Olympic Games. This is the third global swimming championship that World Aquatics has removed from Russia since the war began, after the 2022 World Junior Swimming Championships and the 2022 World Short Course Swimming Championships.Įarlier this week, World Aquatics reiterated that it had “no updates” about the status of Russian and Belarusian athletes.Ģ025 will mark three consecutive editions of the world’s premier aquatic championship event in Asia. World Aquatics did not mention the previous host, or that the award to Singapore was a change of venue, in its press release. Russia was originally named as the host of the global multi-sport event in 2019, and the decision to move venues comes amid ongoing international debate about the role of Russia and Belarus in international sport following the countries’ invasion of neighboring Ukraine in February 2022. The exact dates for the future championship have not yet been set.
