This was the tenth time Switzerland hosted a world men's or women's curling championship, with the last being the 2016 World Men's Curling Championship in Basel.[2]
The format for the Championship featured a thirteen team round robin. The top six teams qualify for the playoff round where the top two teams receive a bye while the remaining four play in the qualification round to qualify for the semifinals.[3]
