What to Expect From CrossFit Open Announcement 25.3
The final live Open announcement marks the conclusion of the 2025 CrossFit Open and, for many people, the end of their Games season.
For the talented top 1-2%, the In-Affiliate Semifinals, and In-Person Qualifying Events await. For everyone else, the Community Cup is another way to extend the competitive season.
The live announcements started during the 2013 season and grew in size and popularity through 2018. CrossFit elected not to host live Open announcements during the 2019 and 2020 seasons but returned to host them in 2021.
- The 25.3 announcement will take place on March 14 at CrossFit Spur in Glenmont, NY, not far from the new CrossFit Games home in Albany.
- The final live announcement will feature a head-to-head-to-head battle between the first-, second-, and fourth-place finishers at the 2024 Games on the men’s side: James Sprague, Dallin Pepper, and Jayson Hopper.
