The event will take place August 8 – 9  at Foro Italico Swimming Pool in Rome and will bring together international teams USA, Australia and Italy as well as athletes of the Energy Standard Team in what promises to be a showcase event following the World Championships in Budapest, which will have concluded the previous week.

In the women’s 200 freestyle we’ll have Pellegrini and Sjöström, for the first time after Rio 2016, and in the  men’s backstroke we’ll have Ryan Lochte returning to compete against the best athletes as Ryan Murphy, Mitchell Larkin, Evgeneny Rylov and Kliment Kolesniko.

Energy for Swim will not only be about swimming: alongside the races and competitions, there will be shows and entertainment by world class artists united with the champions in one mission: raising funds for charity projects working towards children’s welfare. The charities are: Tabletochki supported by Energy Standard Team; Save The Children supported by the Italian Team, Make a Splash supported by USA Swimming and Cure Brain Cancer supported by the Australian Team.

Opening the evenings and during the intervals, from the spectacular stage show mounted in front of the pool, alternating Ciccone Bros, Alessia and Dj Claudio Ciccone, a duo of modern and original musicians also featured in international scenes and Steve Norman, former saxophonist and percussionist of the Spandau Ballet, the famous New Romantic group of the 80s.
