2017 Trampoline Gymnastics World Championships

The 32nd Trampoline Gymnastics World Championships were held in Sofia, Bulgaria, from 9–12 November, 2017. It was held in conjunction with the 2017 Trampoline Gymnastics World Age Group Competitions, which were held the week after in the same arena.

290 athletes from 34 countries competed in 14 events. The event ambassadors were the first Olympic trampoline champions, Irina Karavayeva and Alexander Moskalenko. This was the first World Championships where horizontal displacement factored into the scoring.

Chinese gymnasts dominated the competition, winning 7 of the 14 available titles.

In the men's individual trampoline competition, reigning Olympic champion Uladzislau Hancharou struggled in qualifications, hitting the side of the trampoline, but he was able to advance to the final; there, however, he did not complete his intended routine after hitting the trampoline bed again. It was the first time since 2013 that he did not reach the podium at a major event. The title instead went to Gao Lei for the second consecutive year. Hancharou did win gold in the men's synchro event with partner Aleh Rabtsau. In the women's individual trampoline event, Tatsiana Piatrenia won her first individual trampoline title, and silver and bronze medalists Ayano Kishi and Sophiane Méthot won their first World medals. Jia Fangfang won her fourth World title in the women's individual tumbling event.

Bianca Zoonekynd won the women's double mini trampoline event, the first for a gymnast representing South Africa. Her victory was considered particularly impressive as she had been in a serious car accident three months prior to the event and was hospitalized with a punctured lung and broken ribs. In the men's team tumbling event, the Danish team won their country's first tumbling medal, bronze. The Chinese team for the men's trampoline team event featured three World champions (Dong Dong, the 2013 champion, Tu Xiao, the 2014 champion, and Gao Lei, the 2015 champion), who narrowly won the title above the Russian team; the Chinese women's trampoline team also won their event, and the Chinese women's tumbling team won a fourth consecutive victory.
