Updated locations based on the ISU May 8 Council meeting (report below):

Following the withdrawal of the Fédération Française des Sports de Glace from hosting an event of the
2024/25 Junior Grand Prix in Epinal, the Council allotted the event to Wuxi, China. The ISU Junior Grand
Prix calendar season 2024/25 will therefore be as follows:

• August 28-31, 2024 Riga / LAT (including Pair Skating)
• September 4-7, 2024 Ostrava / CZE (including Pair Skating)
• September 11-14, 2024 Bangkok / THA
• September 18-21, 2024 Istanbul / TUR (including Pair Skating)
• September 25-28, 2024 Gdansk / POL (including Pair Skating)
• October 2-5, 2024 Ljubljana /SLO
• October 9-12, 2024 Wuxi / CHN

As posted in another thread and noted in the report below, the Jr and Sr Grand Prix Final will be held in Grenoble, FRA (rather than Orleans, FRA as originally planned) in December.

JGP event #4 will take place in Ankara, Turkey rather than Istanbul as originally announced.

Assignments to the JGP are starting to be announced.
