Event Summary

Renowned US climber Alex Honnold is set to attempt a rope-free ascent of Taiwan — Taipei 101, a 508-meter skyscraper in Taiwan, on January 23, 2026. This ambitious urban climb, a departure from Honnold's usual rock climbing, will be broadcast live globally on Netflix as 'Skyscraper Live'. The climb is technically less complex but physically demanding due to repetitive movements and overhanging 'bamboo boxes' sections. Netflix previewed the event in October after Honnold was seen practicing on Taiwan — Taipei 101. The event is expected to draw significant attention to Alex Honnold and Netflix.
