British Gymnastics intends to submit an application to compete in the M&amp, S Bank Arena in Liverpool for the 2030 World Championships.

A formal offer will be made in December, with a 2026 announcement regarding the host nation.

If successful, Liverpool will host the Championships for the second time in 2022, with Glasgow, London, and Birmingham also hosting.

As part of their preparation for the Brisbane 2032 Olympics, chief executive of British Gymnastics Sarah Powell said, “We’d love for our British team to be able to experience that in 2030.”

“We have seen that hosting significant events can harness the nation’s passion and be a catalyst for greater impact,” according to the women’s rugby world cup and football Euros.

The 2025 competition, which kicked off on Sunday and wraps up on Saturday in Jakarta, Indonesia, features ten British gymnasts.
