The Deep Creek bid was selected by the ICF Board of Directors on April 15, 2011 in Paris.[1] The other bids were by Vienna and Kraków.[2]
In total there were 10 events of which 9 were medal events. The women's C1 team event did not count as a medal event due to insufficient number of participating federations. According to ICF rules, there must be at least 6 federations participating at a non-olympic event to count as a world championship event.[3]
