Subject: Can we get some new world’s locations?

I love Dublin and the beautiful cities that we get to visit when we attend the Worlds, but couldn’t we maybe shake it up next year?
Schaumburg Illinois is a bit of a dud location, not even in the capital of Chicago but some rinky dink town an hour away.
If we’re gonna spend all this money, why don’t they hold it in a new location, like sunny Australia. Sydney would be lovely. Or did you know that CLRG have a board in South America, a worlds in Argentine could be great to grow the sport. Even Johannesburg might be nice.
Food for thought, just sick of going to the same three countries over and over again with diminishing returns. Think about it

As an Aussie, we would LOVE to host you all and have to here to share our country. In saying that, it won’t ever happen. Too far away from so many dancers and hard to get to. (NT) -- So many more Aussies would compete, as the travel to majors overseas each year is just too expensive for us., 21/04/25 9:53:40, Mon
- I heard your org is putting in a bid for Queensland 2029/2030ish. (NT) -- Would love that!, 23/04/25 2:43:10, Wed
As far as I am aware, countries and specific destinations bid for the world championships every year. It’s not like CLRG members just throw a dart at a world map and see where it lands (NT) -- There’s a lot of world and prep from different venues and destinations every year for it, 21/04/25 10:04:31, Mon
Sydney would be amazing but I can hear the shrieking already about the distance and cost (NT) -- BT, 21/04/25 11:12:30, Mon
We should be dumping as much money as we can in Ireland. (NT) -- Ireland needs it and it’s our duty I think. I live in America. Worlds every year on the island of Ireland., 21/04/25 12:07:38, Mon
- I agree! (NT) -- ❤️, 21/04/25 12:31:36, Mon
- Why should we be dumping as much money into Ireland? (NT) -- ., 21/04/25 22:43:23, Mon
Chicago IS a new location and a fantastic, very Irish city (more) -- Schaumburg is (more), 21/04/25 15:18:53, Mon
Chicago isn't the capital of Illinois (NT) -- It's Springfield., 21/04/25 17:58:05, Mon
