The 2024–25 Tour de Ski will be the 19th edition of the Tour de Ski and part of the 2024–25 FIS Cross-Country World Cup. The World Cup stage event will begin in Toblach, Italy on 28 December 2024 and conclude with the traditional Final Climb stage in Val di Fiemme, Italy, on 5 January 2025. The tour will start in Toblach for the third time. Harald Østberg Amundsen from Norway and Jessie Diggins from United States are the winners of previous edition. Russia and Belarus are not allowed to compete after suspension by FIS council for this World Cup season due to Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1]
Three main individual classifications will be contested in the 2024–25 Tour de Ski, as well as a team competition. The most important is the overall standings, calculated by adding each skier's finishing times on each stage. Time bonuses (time subtracted) are awarded at both sprint stages, where the winners are awarded 60 bonus seconds. The skier with the lowest cumulative time will be the overall winner of the Tour de Ski. For the second time in Tour history, the skier leading the overall standings will wear a gold bib.
