In 2025, the International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) Youth World Championships will return to Europe, specifically in Helsinki, Finland. This marks the first time the event will be held in this region since its inception three years ago. The capital city of Finland is set to welcome hundreds of young climbers from 28 July to 3 August.
The KiipeilyAreena Ristikko, one of the largest Climbing gyms in Northern Europe, will host Lead and Speed competitions. Boulder competitions will take place at Helsingin Kiipeilykeskus, located about 12 kilometers from the other venue. This gym is known for its state-of-the-art facilities and experienced staff who are dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable climbing experience for athletes of all levels.
The IFSC President Marco Scolaris expressed his excitement for the event, stating that the Youth World Championships give a glimpse into the future of the sport. He praised the positive feedback received from the Youth European Championships held in Helsinki in the previous year. Scolaris is confident that the 2025 Youth World Championships will be a great success under the management of the Finnish National Federation.
Finnish National Federation President Juho Risku also shared his enthusiasm for hosting the event, calling it a game-changer for Finnish Climbing. He highlighted how
