The Ice Challenge is an annual senior level international figure skating competition organized by the Austrian Figure Skating Association and sanctioned by the International Skating Union. It began in 1971 as the Leo-Scheu-Gedächtnislaufen and was retitled the Ice Challenge in 2008. The Junior Level and below equivalent competition Icechallenge, is held at the same time. It is held every autumn in Graz, Austria. Skaters compete in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies singles, pair skating, and ice dancing.
The ISU designated the Ice Challenge as one of the events at which skaters may try to achieve a minimum score. In 2014 and 2015, the Ice Challenge’s senior events were part of the ISU Challenger Series. The 2016 edition was cancelled.
