The 2025 Bandy World Championship for men, Division A, and the 2025 Women's Bandy World Championship were played in Lidköping, Sweden, on 24th – 30th March 2025. For the second time, the men's world championship and the women's world championship were played at the same arena and interwined with each other.[1] The Division B tournament for men was played in Uppsala between the 10th and 14th of March.[2]
Originally the Division A tournament was scheduled to be played with 6 participating teams. Kazakhstan was forced to withdraw its participation. The decision was made after the country's Ministry of Tourism and Sports chose not to provide financial support to the Kazakh national team.
