With this great infrastructure, we are ready for another highlight in the decade of handball.”
The World Championship will start in the SAP Garden, which only opened a few weeks ago, as well as in the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, the Wunderino Arena in Kiel and the GETEC Arena in Magdeburg. Each venue will host two preliminary round groups, each with four teams. The final schedule is still being coordinated with the IHF.

The quarterfinals, semifinals, classification matches and medal matches will also take place in Cologne, where the new world champion will be crowned on January 31, 2027, 20 years to the day after the German handball team's World Cup triumph.
