The IFSC World Cup Series 2024 is set to kick off tomorrow, April 8th in Keqiao, China, with the first Boulder competition of the season. This will be followed closely by the IFSC World Cup in Wujiang, China, featuring Lead and Speed competitions.

The semi-final and final rounds of all Boulder and Lead competitions throughout the series will be live streamed on the IFSC YouTube channel. However, geo blocking will be put in place for select countries and territories. On the other hand, Speed qualifications and finals will also be live streamed on the channel with geo restrictions only for the finals.

In Keqiao, women’s Boulder qualifications will take place on Monday followed by men’s Boulder qualifications on Monday evening. Women’s Boulder semi-finals and finals are scheduled for Tuesday while men’s Boulder semi-finals and finals are held on Wednesday. Start lists and live results can be found on the IFSC website.

Moving onto Wujiang where Lead qualifications are scheduled for Friday evening followed by Speed qualifications that same day. On Saturday afternoon we can expect Lead semi-finals while Speed finals take place later that evening. Finally, Lead finals are held on Sunday morning. Again, start lists and live results can be found on the IFSC website for both events in Wujiang as well as Keqiao.
