Competitors, journalists, support teams , sponsors etc are expected to take up 4,000 beds (around 15% of capacity &#8211; but bare in mind it&#8217;s half term so resorts are full in any case).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The World Championships are very prestigious for the resorts and with over 1,000 hours of broadcasting over 15 days and a potential TV audience of 600 million with over 1800 journalists covering the events there is incredible media exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Free access to watch all the competitions along with free shows and entertainment plus additional free transport is promised (maybe better than the current bus service of every 1 hour and twenty minutes from La Tania!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Latest information in the PDF below &#8211;
