IFSC President Marco Scolaris said: “It was not easy to find the best combination to benefit the athletes and satisfy the watching public, on site and at home. We learned from Tokyo 2020, and we took into account many different aspects to make a really solid schedule, to showcase our great sport to a global audience.”
Sport Climbing events will take place at Le Bourget Climbing venue, one of only two sports facility to be built specifically for Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
