La World Freestyle Football Association (WFFA) has announced today the location for its apex tournament of the season, the event that crowns the World Champions of the sport of Freestyle Football: the Campeonato Mundial de Fútbol Freestyle (WFFC)!
This year’s edition of the WFFC tendrá lugar el 13 de diciembre in the beautiful balneary city of Sopot, in northern Poland. The imposing, state-of-the-art Ergo Arena, located between the city and the neighbouring Gdánsk, will play host to the Grand Final of the championship: there, the tricks and skills of the best freestylers on the planet will take centre stage in the biggest-ever venue for a Freestyle Football championship.
The 32 participants in the World Freestyle Football Championship, coming from the highly competitive continental qualifiers of the Series Pulse de la WFFA (Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America and South America), will enjoy a week of activities and experiences thanks to Sopot’s legendary tradition of hospitality before facing off at the iconic arena.
La Ergo Arena, with a seating capacity of 11,409 for sports events, first opened its doors in 2010. Since then, it has served as home ground for the local basketball and volleyball professional teams, while also welcoming the Polish national teams on multiple occasions. Over the years, the Arena has staged prestigious competitions such as the 2013 European Men’s Volleyball Championship and the 2014 IAAF World Indoor Championships in Athletics, as well as memorable concerts by global stars including Lady Gaga, Iron Maiden, Sting and Elton John.
“Plain and simple: we couldn’t be more excited to go back to Sopot!,” said Lukáš Škoda, Head of Operations at the WFFA. “The European Championship we hosted there last year thanks to the invaluable support of the city, WFFA Pulse Sopot 2024, was an amazing success. We can’t wait to repeat it with an even bigger, grander setup this year, bringing there the very best freestylers on the planet for the World Freestyle Football Championship!”.
“I’m delighted that this spectacular sport is returning to Sopot at the World Championship level”, said Magdalena Czarzyńska-Jachim, the Mayor of Sopot. “In June 2024, we hosted the biggest European Freestyle Football stars for the first time. I hope that the competition at ERGO ARENA in December will attract an even larger audience and complement the winter calendar of sporting events taking place in Sopot.”
