Fill in Your Interest for the 2026 World Table Tennis for Health Festival in Shanghai, China!

Three months have passed since the unforgettable 2025 World Table Tennis for Health Festival concluded in Helsingborg, Sweden. Today, we are excited to look ahead and begin the journey toward the 4th edition, set to take place this October in Shanghai, China!

As we prepare for an inspiring new chapter in Asia, we warmly invite you to complete the interest form to stay informed about all official Festival updates, including the opening of registration, accommodation packages, early bird offers, and key event details.

The Festival Heads to Asia for the First Time

Three months ago, the 3rd edition saw a record-breaking 189 players living with Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s from 24 countries and territories, marking the largest edition to date. Over five vibrant days, participants competed, connected, learned, and celebrated the power of table tennis to enhance physical health, mental well-being, and social inclusion.

Building on this momentum, the 2026 Festival in Shanghai aims to expand the global community even further, welcoming new players, coaches, caregivers, and researchers, especially from China and across Asia, while warmly accommodating returning participants from around the world.

The upcoming edition in China will once again unite the World Parkinson’s Table Tennis Championships, World Alzheimer’s Table Tennis Championships, and World Table Tennis for Health Congress, to create a unique platform where sport, science, and lived experience meet and showcase how table tennis can positively impact neurodegenerative conditions and improve quality of life.
