A WEEK TO

REMEMBER

REVIEW: 15th WORLD
GYMNAESTRADA

#WG2015

“Be there,” sang the members of FOG, the Finnish rock band who produced the 2015 World Gymnaestrada’s official song. The 20,000 or so who answered the call lived a week in the Nordic capital that will stay with them forever.

As the week drew to a close, all eyes turned toward a new date - July 2019 - and a new destination: Dornbirn (AUT), host of the 2007 World Gymnaestrada. After the Closing Ceremony at the Olympic Stadium, the assembled gymnasts scattered, aware of having lived something special. After a short break, the process of preparing for the next World Gymnaestrada will begin again.
