The AWPC World Championships 2026 is being hosted by the British Powerlifting Union, WPC UK. We have hosted numerous World and European Championships with over 600 lifters in the past and we are looking forward to once again hosting the AWPC World Championships 2026. 

The competition over 6 days will incorporate teams from all over the World and as always, will be a tribute to the AWPC and its commitment to powerlifting. 

The AWPC has expanded rapidly over the last 5 years, and it is anticipated that the competition will be extremely stiff.
