The XVI World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships were held in Brussels, Belgium, on 20–22 November, 1992.
Due to the number of competitors at the 1991 World Championships, which meant that the event needed to be lengthened to five days, the International Gymnastics Federation voted to hold separate individual and group championships in alternating years. The 1992 Championships were focused on groups, although a limited number of individuals (36) also participated. Countries qualified individuals based on the results of the 1991 World Championships.
Groups competed one routine with six ribbons and another with three ropes and three balls. Six countries made their World Championships debut following the dissolution of the Soviet Union: Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, and Slovenia.
