The local organizing committee of The World Aquatics Championships - Doha 2024 has unveiled the official logo and brand of the championships, scheduled to take place from 2-18 February 2024. This announcement came after the flag handover ceremony held on the final night of competition at the World Aquatics Championships - Fukuoka 2023 in Japan.

The World Aquatics Championships - Doha 2024 brand projects colours that are both uplifting and meaningful. The primary colour, blue, comes from the World Aquatics official emblem. The State of Qatar is surrounded by the gulf, which is represented by the turquoise and light green hues, while vivid orange represents the sunset. The energy and movement related to sports are symbolized by the medium purple-red colour.
"We are proud to announce the official brand of the World Aquatics Championships - Doha 2024," said Mr. Khaleel Ibrahim Al Jaber, The General Director of the Doha 2024 Local Organizing Committee, on this occasion. The voices of all five continents can be heard echoing this call as we look forward to welcoming the elite athletes of aquatic sports and the fans in Doha, promising an unforgettable sporting event."
The World Aquatics Brand showcases five rows to reflect the world's five continents. Six points in the middle of them stand for the six aquatic sports - swimming, water polo, diving, high diving, artistic swimming, and open water swimming - with the movement of water inspiring the brand’s cohesive fluid shapes in the rows and points.
