The 2024 IFSC Climbing World Cup is the 36th edition of the international sport climbing competition series organised by the International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC), held in 9 locations. There are 16 events per gender: five bouldering, six lead, and five speed events. The series begins on 8 April in Keqiao, Shaoxing, China, with the first bouldering World Cup of the season, and will conclude on 8 October in Seoul with bouldering, lead, and speed.
Scheduling[edit]
In October 2023, IFSC announced the 2024 competition schedule, with the season-opening event held in China for the first time ever with the Shanghai World Cup from 9 to 10 April[1] (later moved to the Keqiao district of Shaoxing[2]).
The schedule includes two breaks to accommodate the 2024 Paris Olympics in July. The competition pauses for seven weeks after the Salt Lake City World Cup in May for the 2024 Olympic Qualifier Series events in Shanghai from 16 to 19 May and Budapest from 20 to 23 June, when the final Olympic places in sport climbing are awarded. The series resumes in on 26 June for the Innsbruck World Cup, which is followed by the two French World Cups in Briançon and Chamonix World Cup concluding on 19 July, a week before the opening of the Olympic Games on 26 July. The competition resumes again on 6 September at the Koper World Cup.[3]
The season ends with the Seoul World Cup from 2 to 6 October, with all three competition climbing disciplines—bouldering, lead, and speed—included featured. This would mark the first time that season trophies for all six events—three disciplines per gender—are awarded at the same event. [1]
Competition format and ranking[edit]
The top three finishers in each individual competition receive medals, and the overall winners are awarded trophies. At the end of the season, an overall ranking is determined based upon points, which athletes are awarded for finishing in the top 40 of each individual event.
