2020 FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Cup series

The 2020 FIG World Cup circuit in Artistic Gymnastics is a series of competitions officially organized and promoted by the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) in 2020. A number of events were originally scheduled to take place in 2020 and serve as opportunities for gymnasts to earn points towards Olympic qualification. However, the organization of many events was heavily affected by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in either cancelation or postponement of some events to 2021.[1]

Two of the Apparatus World Cup series competitions (Melbourne and Baku), as well as the American Cup All-Around World Cup in Milwaukee, were held and counted towards Olympic qualification through the FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Cup series route.[2] Additionally, the Szombathely World Challenge Cup was the sole representative of the World Challenge Cup series staged in 2020, and did not affect the ranking for Olympic qualification.[3]
