‘At the end of March FINA delegates visited our country and they were absolutely satisfied with the organising. Organising world championships is a huge task, but enormous success as well. The event of July can be considered as one of the four most prestigious events in the world attracting ten-thousands of tourists to Hungary and TV broadcast is also followed by millions’ he said.

Regarding the venue of synchronised swimming he added that a key aspect was to preserve green areas, both the pools and the stands would be built on the concrete surface of the lake.

At the press conference dr. Anita Boros, Deputy Secretary of State for the Ministry of National Development responsible for asset management was also present. She mentioned that organising the event within such a record time is unique in the history of world championships.
