The 2014 World Rowing Championships were the 44th edition of the World Rowing Championships and were held from 24 to 31 August 2014 at Bosbaan, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, the second occasion on which the event had been held in Amsterdam, or the Netherlands.

The 2014 championships were notable for the number of world best times set on days seven & eight of competition.

New Zealand rowers Eric Murray and Hamish Bond achieved a rare double in the coxed and coxless pairs.

The championships were notable for the number of world best times set on days seven & eight of competition (30 & 31 August) with fourteen long standing world marks set in addition to a number of world best times beaten then bettered during the regatta.

Tail winds and fast water affected the conditions on the Bosbaan but the new marks were allowed to stand by FISA.
