2025 - Varese (ITA)

Varese (ITA), June 13th - 15th, 2025
 

The first stage of the 2025 World Rowing Cup will take place on Lago di Varese, Italy from 13 to 15 June 2025, with 39 countries participating – the biggest contingents coming from Great Britain, Germany, Australia, and the home nation, Italy. This World Cup stage will also see the international debut of the Mixed Eight, being staged as a test event. Four countries will compete – Czechia, Germany, Italy and the United States in Varese, with all crews composed of athletes doubling up from other boats. The World Rowing Cup series was launched in 1997 and consists of a annual series of three events, although, exceptionally, only two stages will be held in 2025. The overall World Rowing Cup winners are determined after the last event through the points accumulated at both events. This year, the three stages of the series are Varese, Italy (13-15 June), Lucerne, Switzerland (27-29 June).
