2024 Men's European Water Polo Championship
The 2024 Men's European Water Polo Championship will be the 36th running of the tournament. It will be held in Netanya, Israel from 7 to 21 October 2023, just 14 months after the previous ECH in Split, because the World Championships in Doha will be held already in the winter of 2024. The summer of 2024 is reserved for the Olympic Games. Originally awarded to Tel Aviv in October 2022,[1][2] the host site was moved to Netanya, Israel in March 2023 due to technical challenges surrounding the agreed dates and also to reduce the costs for participating countries.[3]
