The 2016 FIVB Volleyball World League was the 27th edition of the annual men's international volleyball tournament which was played by a record of 36 teams from 16 June to 17 July 2016. The Group 1 final round was held in Kraków, Poland.[1] After being runners-up on five occasions, Serbia finally claimed their first World League after prevailing over Brazil in straight sets.[2][3] The defending champions France claimed their first ever bronze medal at the World League after a fast victory in straight sets against Italy.[4] Marko Ivović was elected the most valuable player.[5]

Canada secured their promotion into the 2017 World League Group 1 by sweeping hosts Portugal in straight sets in the Group 2 final four held in Matosinhos.[6][7]

In the Group 3 final four, held in Frankfurt, Germany, Slovenia defeated the home team in four sets to crown their first ever World League appearance. Additionally, the team coached by former World League champion and MVP Andrea Giani earned a spot for the Intercontinental Group 2 in the next year.[8][9]
