# Bouldering at the 2016 IFSC Climbing World Cup

The 2016 season of the IFSC Climbing World Cup was the 18th season of the competition. Bouldering competitions were held at the seven stops of the IFSC Climbing World Cup. The bouldering season began on April 15 at the World Cup in Meiringen, and concluded on 12 June at the World Cup in Munich. At each stop a qualifying was held on the first day of the competition, and the semi-final and final rounds were conducted on the second day of the competition. The winners were awarded trophies, the best three finishers received medals, and prize money was awarded to the top six finishers at each stop.
