About Fukuoka 2023

Image of the tournament

In January 2016, it was decided at the International Swimming Federation (FINA) Bureau meeting that the 2021 FINA World Championships would be held in Fukuoka. This will be the second time in 22 years the city will play host to the event since the 2001 World Championships, which was the first ever Championships to be staged in Asia. In December 2023, FINA changed its name to World Aquatics.
The World Aquatics Championships - Fukuoka 2023 utilises the compact urban structure of Fukuoka and strives to maximise the value of the event through the city's unique layout. It will save time on travel for athletes to liven up the event, and efficiently run the competition by utilising special temporary pools, aggregate venues and market streets.
Moreover, the event aims to create an innovative and easy-to-follow tournament by working with local technology companies to use the latest technology.
