The IFSC announced the 2022 World Cup schedule in October 2021. The series opens in Moscow instead of the traditional curtain-raiser in Meiringen, Switzerland, and repeats the back-to-back events held in Salt Lake City, introduced in the 2021 series[2] The IFSC followed up in December 2021 with an announcement of Koper as a first-time host city, a change from the traditional host city of Kranj, which hosted the Slovenian leg of the event 25 times between 1996 and 2021, as well as Wujiang as the last stop in the circuit.[1]
