Climbing Escalade Canada and USA Climbing are excited to announce that the North American Cup Series (NACS) is back for 2025!
NACS features the three individual disciplines of climbing – Boulder, Lead, and Speed – and allows athletes from the Americas the opportunity to compete at an elite level and develop outside of the World Cup circuit.
The 2024 series welcomed first-time international competitors, Olympians, and climbing veterans (yes, even Chris Sharma came out of competition retirement for the series).
The 2025 series will head east to kick things off, with stops at BlocHaven (Greenville, SC) and Climb Murfreesboro (Murfreesboro, TN). One of the fan-favorite stops, the GoPro Mountain Games (situated above 8,000 feet in Vail, CO), is back on the schedule, but with the first-ever inclusion of the Speed discipline. After these and two Canadian stops hosted by Climbing Escalade Canada, the series will conclude at the USA Climbing National Training Center in Salt Lake City, UT.
