2016 World Rowing Championships
Venue	Willem-Alexander Baan
Location	Rotterdam, Netherlands
Dates	21–28 August
	← 2015 Aiguebelette-le-Lac 2017 Sarasota →

The 2016 World Rowing Championships was the 46th edition and held from 21 to 28 August 2016 at the Willem-Alexander Baan in Rotterdam, Netherlands in conjunction with the World Junior Rowing Championships^[1] and the World Rowing U23 Championships.^[2] The annual week-long rowing regatta is organized by FISA (the International Rowing Federation), and held at the end of the northern hemisphere summer. Because the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 2016 Summer Paralympics were the major rowing events in 2016, the World Championships programme was limited to non-Olympic events, non-Paralympic events, and the World Rowing Junior Championships were held at the same time, and also the World Rowing U23 Championships.
