Go big or go home! Two champions were crowned at the epic conclusion to the World Series' 16th season, with the sports-wild city of Boston returning to play host to the world's best cliff divers. Having twice hosted the season opener, the iconic US coastal location switched it up, this time serving up the epic final stop of the 2025 Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series.
Boston’s waterfront transforms into the ultimate stage, where elite athletes, high-stakes competition and a hyped-up crowd unite to serve the epic finale of the 2025 World Series, where this year’s champion will be crowned in a gripping showdown.
The battle for the King Kahekili trophy will be fought from the Boston skyline, as for the first time in Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series history, the city hosts the last competition of the season. The September finale marks only the second time in the competition’s 16 season-long history that the World Series has wrapped in the United States, following Hawaii’s iconic event in 2010, in the birthplace of cliff diving.
