An annual festival launching Saturday, March 4, The Onsight will gather climbers and those new to the sport in Los Angeles, Portland (Oregon), and Salt Lake City to commemorate International Women’s Day, officially observed Wednesday, March 8.

The Wondery team anticipates drawing upwards of 600 guests across the three event spaces: Sender One LAX in LA, Salt Lake Bouldering Project, and Movement Portland. Sponsors of the event include Patagonia, Cotopaxi, and Mountain Hardwear. The Onsight events will host a variety of climbing and adventure challenges, climbing clinics, a marketplace of woman-owned businesses, an outdoor gear raffle, and refreshments furnished by local vendors.

The first 50 people to RSVP to each gym will receive a gift bag, and guests attending the event in Los Angeles will receive 50% off the Wondery Isabel Pant, Parks of the USA Bucket List Water Bottle, and special-edition Wondery community tee. Fifty percent of the day pass sales and 100% of raffle revenue from The Onsight will be donated to The Ladies Climbing Coalition, a nonprofit dedicated to building community and fostering positivity, inspiration, motivation, and growth for women and non-binary climbers.

“As part of Wondery’s mission to empower women and other underrepresented communities in the outdoors, we identify, partner with, and support existing communities and groups who are already making moves for a cause. This year, The Onsight will help amplify the outstanding efforts of the Ladies Climbing Coalition,” said Lydia Mok, community director at Wondery Brand. “Climbing is a sport with some high barriers to entry. Our events are intended to level those barriers and empower more women by inviting them in and celebrating our collective strengths.”

Through reduced prices and complimentary services, Wondery strives to bolster education and gear access so that anyone interested in outdoor recreation can enjoy the experience with knowledge, safety, and empowerment.
