The locations of the JGP events change annually. One event was to be held in Épinal, France, but was withdrawn by the French Federation of Ice Sports and the spot re-allocated to Wuxi, China. Additionally, the Junior Grand Prix Final was originally to be held in Orléans, France, but the French Federation of Ice Sports relocated the event to Grenoble. This season, the series will include the following events.
Skaters who reach the age of 13 before July 1, 2024, but have not turned 19 (singles skaters and female pairs or ice dance skaters) or 21 (male pairs or ice dance skaters) will be eligible to compete on the junior circuit. Competitors are chosen by their countries according to their federations' selection procedures. The number of entries allotted to each ISU member federation is determined by their skaters' placements at the 2024 World Junior Championships in each discipline.
Number of entries per discipline
Based on the results of the 2024 World Junior Championships, each ISU member nation is allowed to field the following number of entries per event.
At each event, skaters earn points toward qualification for the Junior Grand Prix Final. Following the seventh event, the top six highest-scoring skaters/teams advance to the Final. The points earned per placement are as follows:

There were originally seven tie-breakers in cases of a tie in overall points:
Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
Highest combined total scores in both events. If a skater earned 200 points at one event and 250 at a second, that skater would win in the second tie-break over a skater who earned 200 points at one event and 150 at another.
Participated in two events.
Highest combined scores in the free skating/free dance portion of both events.
Highest individual score in the free skating/free dance portion from one event.
Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
Highest number of total participants at the events.
If a tie remained, it was considered unbreakable and the tied skaters all advanced to the Junior Grand Prix Final.
