The 2025 World Seniors Championship (officially the 2025 JenningsBet World Seniors Championship) was a snooker tournament that took place from 7 to 11 May 2025 at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England, the seventh consecutive year that the tournament was held at the venue. Open to amateur players over 40 and professional players who were over 45 and also ranked outside the top 64 in the snooker world rankings, the event was the 16th edition of the World Seniors Championship, first held in 1991. Organised by the World Seniors Tour, the event was broadcast in the United Kingdom by Channel 5 and internationally by other broadcasters.
Igor Figueiredo was the defending champion, having defeated Ken Doherty 5–2 in the 2024 final, but he lost 2–4 to Wayne Townsend in the first round. Alfie Burden held leads of 4–1 and 7–2 against Aaron Canavan in the final and went on to win 8–4 to claim his first World Seniors title.
The tournament produced five century breaks, four of which were compiled by Dominic Dale, who also made the highest, a 131 in his semi-final match against Canavan. The final of the event was Michaela Tabb's last appearance as a traditional snooker referee, following a 24-year career during which she had refereed two World Championship finals.
