Six months to go until London 2016

10 Nov 2015

With exactly six months to go, we can confirm that the London LEN European Aquatics Championships will be your only chance to watch world-class diving in the UK in 2016.

The UK has proudly hosted international diving every year since 2011 and 2016 will be no different with Europe’s best set to descend on London in May.

For the past two years the London Aquatics Centre at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park has acted as a host for the FINA Diving World Series.

In 2012 the iconic venue also hosted the FINA Diving World Cup, the test event ahead of what was a spectacular Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The Diving World Series was successfully hosted in Sheffield in 2011 and Edinburgh in 2013 as well but will not stopover in Britain in the build up to the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

Therefore the London 2016 European Aquatics Championships will be your only chance to watch Britain’s – and the continent’s – best divers before they head to Brazil.

Tickets are currently unavailable for session 19, which includes the men’s 10m platform final, but there are 12 other action-packed sessions to choose from.

And don’t forget, for the first time ever diving and synchronised swimming will be held in the same session at the London 2016 European Aquatics Championships.

There are four of these sessions in total, which means you can come along early and watch world-class synchronised swimming at no extra cost.
