On July 5, it was anounced that the first International Super Cup of Canoe and Kayak would be held in Hangzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province in October, 2024.

The event involves canoe sprint, canoe slalom, canoe marathon, and canoe polo. This is the first international comprehensive competition of canoe and kayak that integrates two Olympic events and two non-Olympic events.

Thomas Konietzko, the president of the International Canoe Federation, said, "No events can bring together so many Olympic champions, world champions and medal winners like International Super Cup of Canoe & Kayak. I would like to express my gratitude to Hangzhou for its efforts in holding the event."

As the independent brand event, the competition will be launched in Hangzhou every year, and the venue is located at Fuyang Water Sports Centre which will hold canoe sprint and canoe slalom events of Hangzhou Asian Games.
