It will be arranged by the German Life Saving Organisation (DLRG) on behalf of the International Life Saving Federation (ILS). From 20 July to 2 August about 4,000 participants will take part in competitions in Berlin and Warnemünde. Berlin hosts the pool-events and Warnemünde is the venue for the sea-based events.
