Ladies and Gentlemen, dear friends of billard!

Viersen is proud to be a World Cup city and an experienced tournament location. The billiard balls will roll again in March 2025. For the 34th time Viersen is hosting the three-cushion International World Championship.

The “Festhalle”, Viersen’s number 1 cultural address, opens its doors for this renowned top-class international sporting event. The large hall creates an unrivalled tournament atmosphere for the current top athletes and their fans from both home and abroad.

The national and international cue virtuosos compete for four days in front of an audience that is as knowledgeable as it is enthusiastic. At the same time, sports enthusiasts all over the world will be celebrating the live broadcast from the festival hall. This stream alone broadcasts the city of Viersen to all four corners of the world.

The national teams and their support staff can rely on the hosting qualities of the city of Viersen. The tournament preparation is completed with all due professionalism, without changing the feel-good family atmosphere so praised by the athletes. The excitement building up towards the opening ceremony, the moderated presentation of all national teams and for the games of the 37th World Cup tournament is growing with every day.

Our great thanks also go to the Deutsche Billard Union (DBU) for their trusting cooperation and loyalty to Viersen. With a view to this special event, I rename our city slogan “Stadt.Land.Viersen” and without further ado cordially invite you, the athletes and their audience, to “Stadt.Land.Billard” in Viersen.

Mayor
