Host selection
The 2019 tournament was originally supposed to be held in Irkutsk in Russia,[3] but the decision was reconsidered [4] due to a failure to meet the demands on an arena accepted for international play[5] and the tournament was held in Vänersborg in Sweden instead.[6]
For 2020, the new Arena Baikal will be ready for play, and therefore, this year's world championship will be held in Irkutsk. Some games will probably be played in surrounding cities too.[7]
The last time the World Championship was held in Irkutsk, was in 2014.
