Competitions will be held in the spectacular O2 Arena, one of London's finest concert and sporting venues.
An incredible hall offers gymnasts flawless conditions in which to compete, and it is here that the 2012 Olympic events will unfold, making these world championships into somewhat of an Olympic dress rehearsal.
The 41st World Championships will be organised by British Gymnastics.
