Russia and Finland in the final
China made its second WCS appearance, while for Ukraine it was the third time

Bandy World Championship 2016, the XXXVI Bandy World Championship, was held with Ulyanovsk Oblast, Russia, as host region. Most of the games was played at the Volga-Sport-Arena in Ulyanovsk. Because of its higher spectator capacity, the group stage matches between Russia and Sweden and between Russia and Kazakhstan were played at Trud Stadium, which also hosted one semi-final and the final. Some games were played in nearby Dimitrovgrad at Stadium Stroitel.

The Division A tournament was played from 1 February until 7 February 2016, while the Division B tournament took place afterwards, on 10–14 February.[1]

Czech Republic made its debut,[2] while Canada and Ukraine were set to return, thus reaching an all-time high of nineteen participating teams.[3] Canada missed the championships due to domestic competitions, so a total of eighteen countries participated, which is still more than ever before.

The tournament was part of Russian President Vladimir Putin's schedule for 2016,[4] he sent a greeting letter before the tournament[5] and one of congratulation after the victory of the Russian team.[6]

Because of the weather conditions and the want to keep the ice at Trud good for the semifinals and the final, the Tuesday 2 February game (game 8) between Russia and Finland and the Wednesday 3 February game (game 12) between Russia and Sweden were moved from the outdoor Trud stadium to the indoor Volga-Sport-Arena.[7]

Division A

After drawn games in the group stage, a penalty shootout is held to determine final placings in the event of teams finishing on equal points
