Alles rondom de WK Turnen 2026 in Rotterdam
mei 31, 2026
Building bridges
Van 17 tot en met 25 oktober 2026 verandert het iconische Rotterdam Ahoy in het mondiale podium voor de WK turnen. Met uitzinnige fans, bruisende fan zones en ’s werelds beste turners op de vloer wordt dit een kampioenschap als geen ander. Terwijl atleten hun Olympische droom najagen en strijden voor nationale trots, vormt Rotterdam het decor voor verbinding – tussen generaties, culturen en disciplines.
Onder het thema Building Bridges is dit evenement meer dan alleen sport. Het draait om verbinding, tussen mensen, generaties en culturen. Het thema komt overal terug: van topsport in Ahoy tot breedtesportactiviteiten in de stad, van side-events tot campagnes met de slogan #BuildingBridges.
WK-Song & Dance challenge
Met That Bridge We Built Today hebben de WK turnen 2026 een soundtrack die perfect past bij het evenement. Het nummer wordt gezongen door Evie van der Heijden, student aan Codarts University of the Arts in Rotterdam, en draait om verbinding, samenwerking en het moment waarop alles samenkomt.
