# 2024–25 Luge World Cup

The 2024–25 FIL Luge World Cup (official: Eberspächer Luge World Cup), was the 48th World Cup season for men and women as the highest level of international luge competitions.
The season started on 30 November 2024 in Lillehammer, Norway, and concluded on 23 February 2025 in Yanqing, China.
The season featured a break in February for the FIL World Luge Championships in Whistler, Canada, whose results are not included in the World Cup standings.

## Season overview

In the 2024/25 season, the Sprint World Cup will no longer be held. At the FIL 2024 Congress, the world association decided to introduce new mixed competitions instead, which may be held in teams, in both singles and doubles disciplines. For the first time, mixed teams from two nations are also allowed to take part if they cannot field their own mixed team. This new format will premiere with the start of the World Cup in Lillehammer, and later in Oberhof (originally scheduled for Altenberg) and Pyeongchang.
A total of nine World Cup weekends are planned on eight routes in six countries.
