An update for our community
WAWC needs
more time.
Welding art deserves a truly international stage. Building it takes the right conditions and reliable partnerships. These cannot be secured within the original timeframe.
The planned WAWC event at FABTECH Las Vegas 2026 will not take place. The competition timeline is being reviewed.
How and when WAWC can move forward remains open. We will share the next steps here once they are confirmed.
To every artist, supporter and partner who has been part of this: thank you for your commitment and patience.
