The 2017 Artistic Gymnastics World Championships was the forty-seventh edition of the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships. The competition was held from October 2-8, 2017, at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
The event marked the first time since 2003 that the Championships had been held in North America. Montreal was also the host of the 1985 World Championships and the 1976 Summer Olympics. The event was part of Montreal's 375th anniversary and Canada's 150th anniversary celebrations, both of which were in fall of 2017.

Floor
Due to a dead spot on the floor in the last subdivision of qualifications that allowed a rotation of gymnasts to redo their floor routines, Bram Verhofstad of the Netherlands bumped out the original eighth-place qualifier Tomás González of Chile. After an appeal by the Chilean Gymnastics Federation, González was reinstated; thus, causing there to be 9 gymnasts in the final.
