Chers Amis olympiques,
Only a few weeks left before the whole family of Olympic collectors from all over the world reunites in Prague, 100 years to the day after the historic Congress of the International Olympic Committee, in this same wonderful city.
The entire Olympsport team, with the support of AICO, has worked to make the XXVIII WOCF Prague 2025 a unique moment of exchanges, meetings and sharing.
The opportunity for all of us to re-discover the cultural charms of the Czech capital as well.
I invite participants, visitors and exhibitors to take part in the cultural and festive program of the WOCF Prague 2025, in particular the Gala dinner on Saturday 31 May 2025 where we will find in a historical setting combining music and gastronomy… with a few surprises.
We will celebrate the 28th edition of our international event for fans and enthusiasts of Olympism.
See you soon in Prague,
Vítejte !
