The Arnhem-hall shooting range will host the Championship, whose 1990 and 1999 editions had been hosted by the same venue.

Other than the Olympic disciplines, the Championship will showcase a Target Sprint event that the ISSF recognized. Athletes will run and shoot with air rifles on the athletics track of the National Sports Center, right by the range.
