London hosted the first Trampoline World Championships in 1964.
The inaugural championships took place at Royal Albert Hall in London, England, on 21 March 1964. They marked an important step in turning trampoline performance into an internationally organized competitive sport. The event attracted competitors from 12 countries and used a knockout format rather than the modern qualification structures familiar from major championships.
Competitors performed routines containing 10 jumps, with judging panels of roughly five to seven judges. The men’s results included Dan Millman, Gary Erwin, and Dave Smith, while Judy Wills, Lynda Ball, and Karle van der Bogard were listed among the women’s leading finishers.
The venue is an easy detail to overlook: the answer is London, not Royal Albert Hall. Royal Albert Hall was the specific building, while London was the host city requested by the question. The next edition was also held in London, in 1965, helping establish the city as an early center for the championships.
