# 2021 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships

The 2021 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships were held from 16 to 19 September 2021 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
In a break with convention, these championships were held in an Olympic year as the COVID-19 pandemic forced a year-long postponement of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic & Paralympic Games.
