For the first time ever, the Festival of Synchro brings four world championships together in one landmark celebration of synchronized skating. 

Across the festival, fans will see the sport at every level - from the fresh energy of Synchro9 and the next generation of junior talent, to the world’s best teams taking to the ice for the official title of World Champion. 

With fan experiences at its heart - from memorable moments around the venue to city-wide engagement and inclusion - this is synchro at full scale, with Nottingham as its stage.

A team-based discipline of figure skating where up to 16 skaters perform together in perfect union. Teams execute complex formations, transitions, and elements while skating at high speed, combining speed, precision and artistry.

Synchro9 is a new synchronized skating format developed to modernise the discipline and make it more engaging for global audiences.

It features nine skaters per team and introduces a faster, more dynamic competition structure designed for both live events and broadcast.

Absolutely. The Championships are a brilliant experience for all ages, combining world-class sport, music and entertainment in a lively arena atmosphere.

With the new addition of Synchro9, there will be even more for families to enjoy - from fast-paced competition and team spirit on the ice, to the wider festival atmosphere around the event.

No, Synchronized Skating is easy to enjoy even as a first-time spectator.

Synchronized Skating combines speed, precision, music and teamwork in a way that feels completely different live.

Teams move across the ice in constantly changing formations, with every skater relying on split-second timing and total trust in one another. It’s powerful, highly skilled and brilliant to watch in an arena atmosphere.
