European Aquatics has named Bjelovar, Croatia as the host city for the 2027 European Junior Championships. The meet will take place in the brand new Wellovar pool complex. The meet will take place from June 29th through July 4th.
“Hosting the European Aquatics Junior Swimming Championships in 2027 at this magnificent new facility is a great honour for Croatia,” said Josip Varvodic, European Aquatics’ First Vice President and President of both the Croatian Swimming Association and the Croatian Olympic Committee.
Varvodic continued, “This award recognizes the decision to invest in major outdoor sporting events as a means of promoting the city and region internationally and enhancing its profile. We are grateful to European Aquatics for the trust they have placed in Bjelovar, and we will ensure we are ready to welcome athletes, delegations and fans from across Europe, guaranteeing the highest standards of hospitality, organization and a warm welcome.”
The Wellovar pool complex is currently being built at a cost of 51 million Euros. It is the largest project in the city of Bjelovar’s history. The city’s mayor, Dario Hrebak, said that they have invested “over 100 million euros in the last two years alone” on sports infrastructure in Bjelovar. The new pool complex is expected to open in two months.
Bjelovar is a smaller city located in central Croatia. It is an hour and 15 minute drive from Zagreb, the capital and largest city in the country, to Bjelovar.
Croatia sent six girls and 10 boys to the 2026 European Junior Championships that took place last month in Munich, Germany. The team did not return home with any medals. Ana Bobanovic was the highest finisher for the country as she was 8th in the 50 freestyle (25.61).
