Participation is for everybody, regardless of gender, age, race, religion, culture, ability or social standing.

Over 18,800 participants are expected to be taking part in World Gymnaestrada 2023 which this year is returning to the Netherlands, the country in which it was born 70 years ago when the very first edition was held in Rotterdam.
