The VIII World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships were held in Basel, Switzerland from 13 to 16 October 1977.

29 countries sent gymnasts, with 22 of those sending groups; 78 individual gymnasts were entered. Groups performed routines with six pairs of clubs, which were performed twice; individuals competed with rope, hoop, ball, and ribbon. The number of gymnasts allowed into finals increased from six to eight.

Soviet gymnasts dominated the competition; Carmen Rischer, the all-around champion from the previous World Championships (where dominant Communist nations such as the Soviet Union and Bulgaria did not send competitors), placed sixth, to the displeasure of German fans, who disrupted the competition by booing her final all-around score for more than ten minutes. Galima Shugurova won silver behind Irina Deriugina in the all-around but went on to win three of the event finals.
