The event will kick off on April 12, as confirmed by the Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation (BRGF).

BRGF vice president Neviana Vladinova expressed her excitement, stating, “We are extremely excited to have the opportunity to gather in Sofia the world elite of rhythmic gymnastics, as this is an Olympic year.” She mentioned that the competition will include top gymnasts like world champion Darja Varfolomeev, with China being the only country not participating in the group event.
