The17thFINA World Championships (Hungarian:2017-es úszó-világbajnokság) were held inBudapest,Hungary from 14 to 30 July 2017.[1][2]
On 15 July 2011, at the biennial General Congress ofFINA inShanghai, the host city of the 2017 World Aquatics Championships,Guadalajara,Mexico was announced as the winning bid.Kazan,Russia was awarded the2015 Championships in the same vote, whereas the rival bid fromHong Kong,China was left unrewarded.Guangzhou (China) andMontreal (Canada) had withdrawn their bids shortly before the vote.
In February 2015, Mexico withdrew from hosting the world championships, saying they could not afford the $100 million price tag for hosting the multi-sport aquatic event.[3] FINA Bureau members held a vote by email for a replacement host city, with the majority voting in favour of bringing forward Budapest as host city for 2017 (originally announced as the 2021 host city), and re-running the bidding process for the 2021 edition for the Championships.[4] On 11 March 2015, it was announced that Budapest would host the 2017 Championships.[5]
The logo of 2017 World Aquatics Championships was inspired by water and Hungarian folk art. TheWhite water rosesLali (male) andLili (female) in swimming costumes were selected as mascots of the championships.[6] Slogan of the championships wasWater, Wonder, Welcome.
TheHungarian National Bank issued a commemorative version of the 50 Ft circulation coin on the occasion of the 17th FINA World Championships to be held in Hungary.[7] andHungarian Post produced 200,000 stamps and the commemorative booklet with envelope and stamp of first day mail cancellation.[8]
The two main competition venues are located inBudapest:Danube Arena, a brand-new indoor swimming pool complex for swimming and diving on the eastern bank of theDanube just north ofMargaret Island, and the existingAlfréd Hajós National Swimming Stadium, on Margaret Island itself, for water polo. Open water swimming events are held atLake Balaton.[9] High diving and synchronised swimming are held at temporary venues in Budapest.
A total of 75 Medal events are held across six disciplines.[10]
