This development will mark the end of the Games being held in Madison for six of the past seven years, beginning in 2017. The only exception was in 2020 when the Games relocated to its inaugural location, Aromas, CA, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to the Games being held in Madison, its home for seven years was Carson, CA.<\/p>\n<p>This move is a pivot from a January 2023 announcement when CrossFit said that Madison <em>would<\/em> be the following year&#8217;s host city, calling it an \u201cideal\u201d location. There appears to be no friction or grievance on CrossFit\u2019s end with Madison as a city, but CrossFit did share a statement, highlighting a desire to increase awareness and bring more eyes directly to the competitions, possibly outside of the United States.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cOur goal is to bring the Games to more regions around the world.
