Climbing elite united in Innsbruck: IFSC Austria Climbing Open 2021

From June 22nd to 26th, 2021, four international competitions will take place at the IFSC Austria Climbing Open in the outdoor area of โ€‹โ€‹the Innsbruck climbing center. There are live streams here.

Competitions in all disciplines take place in Innsbruck (lead, bouldering, speed and paraclimbing). So far, all four disciplines have only been carried out at world championships, so the extensive event in Innsbruck is a novelty in the 32-year history of the World Cup. A total of 600 athletes and team officials from 38 nations will be at the start.

We have an experienced team when it comes to organizing events. Our big plus is the infrastructure, this is the only way we can cope with the event with this enormous number of participants.
