The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series returns to Boston in its 16th year as one of its 4 worldwide spectacles this month! Divers suspended over 27m (90 feet) in the air will jump off landmarks worldwide while showcasing incredible acrobatics, focus, and unparalleled skill. The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series marks a monumental milestone as it makes its third consecutive return to the Boston Harbor, marking a historic finale since the inception of the series in 2009!
‘Divers to reach speeds exceeding 52 miles-per-hour’
Boston is one of the 4 lucky locations, and the only US destination, to host such a jaw-dropping series. You can watch all of the best of the best divers take a leap of skill (and faith) into the Boston Harbor Friday, September 19 through Saturday, September 20.
Last year, spectators lined the docks and filled the glass auditorium of the ICA for crystal clear views as divers spiraled into sparkling blue waters.
In prior years, Boston served up a crazy season opener when Aidan Heslop and Molly Carlson set the tone for one of the most exciting seasons in cliff diving history. Let’s see if there’s another shake-up in store for the sports-crazed city.
Cities announced for Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series
Between the Red Bull and the cliff diving it’s sure to be an adrenaline-filled day. The cliff diving series traveled from the Philippines to Italy, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and will make its final stop in Boston this year!
The new season welcomes over 20 cliff divers in total, from dozens of different countries, half women and half men, with plenty of fresh faces on the roster. Boston is the only US-based host city this year.
