Year End Message 2024
Dear WCA Community,
As we welcome 2025, it’s the perfect time to look back on everything we accomplished together as a global community in 2024. Over the past year, we saw more than 2,700 competitions take place across 102 countries, with over 63,000 participants, including 32,954 newcomers! Along the way, 4,038 National Records, 245 Continental Records, and 59 World Records were broken at the competitions. Additionally, 9 new Regional Organizations were recognized, bringing the total number of WCA-recognized ROs to 46!
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the organizing team for their dedication and meticulous planning, which will bring us the World Championship 2025 in Seattle, USA. A special thanks to RUBIK'S CUBE® for their continued partnership and invaluable support, which also played a key role in the 6 successful Continental Championships that we had in 2024. Their sponsorship helped make these competitions possible, and we hope many of you were able to attend or enjoy streams of the action live!
