The official time has come to know the dates and locations of the CrossFit ® Games 2024 Semifinals. In Europe, the competition will take place at the LDLC Arena in Décines-Charpieu, France, from 17 to 19 May 2024. With a contingent of 40 individual athletes and 30 teams, this Semifinal promises to be a crazy experience.
The stakes are high: alone five places (minimum) will be assigned to individual athletes and eight teams will have a chance to advance to the CrossFit® Games.
Dave Castro, General Manager of Sports and Education at CrossFit® said:
“We are thrilled to announce these locations for these great events that will take place in the upcoming semi-finals. It will be a first-class experience and we can't wait to see how the competitions will change."
In total, there are seven regions that will welcome qualified athletes, invited based on their country of citizenship for the third phase of the competition.

How do assignments work?
The semi-final will be assigned to each member of theOpen 2024 and athletes will know which region they will compete in when they register.
Therefore, if they qualify for the next stages, they will be able to prepare for their semi-final. Also, CrossFit® will standardize and schedule all tests for the entire season, including the Semifinals, and all individual athletes and teams from the same affiliate box will compete in the same Semifinal.
As previously announced, the semifinals and finals of the 2024 CrossFit® Games for adaptive, teens and masters athletes will take place separately.
When does the 2024 CrossFit® Games season start?
The 2024 CrossFit® Games season begins with CrossFit® Open Workout 24.1 on Thursday, February 29. Registration details for the 2024 CrossFit® Open will be announced at a later date.
