The third event of the season will take place in Tijuana, Mexico, running from June 8 to 13.
Season Events Launch Olympic Qualification Path
The 2027 season carries significant weight for the global archery community as it bridges the gap between major championship cycles. Beyond the immediate pursuit of World Cup medals, the events serve as the starting point for the qualification process for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. The World Championships themselves remain the marquee event of the year, where world titles will be contested following the conclusion of the World Cup schedule.

Beyond the international circuit, domestic interest in the sport remains high, with Italian national events continuing to receive television coverage.
