2012 World Rowing Championships

2012 World Rowing Championships
Location Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Dates 15 August – 19 August

The 2012 World Rowing Championships were held at Plovdiv, Bulgaria between August 15 – August 19.[1] 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 2012 Summer Olympics was the major rowing event in 2012, the programme was limited to non-Olympic events, and the World Rowing Junior Championships were held at the same time.
