The Europa Cup is the European Championships of the International Canoe class and is not held in World Championship years.
European Championships were held from the 1960s, but the event was formalised with the name of Europa Cup and the presentation of the trophy, an antique Dutch glass drinking vessel, by Heineken in 1986. It appears that the ICF authorities were unhappy with the event being titled European Championships.
