The 2021–22 ISU Challenger Series was held from September to December 2021. It was the eighth season that the ISU Challenger Series, a group of senior-level international figure skating competitions, was held.

Competitions

This season, the series included the following events.[1]

The 2021 Asian Open Trophy, which was held on October 13–17 in Beijing, China, was intended to be a Challenger Series event. However, as only the men's and women's singles events featured international participants and the total number of ISU member nations represented at the event totaled nine, it did not meet the necessary criteria to qualify for Challenger Series status.
