On August 27, 2021, the International Skating Union announced that the Gran Premio d'Italia would replace the Cup of China, which was cancelled on August 16 due to travel restrictions and quarantine requirements related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In an attempt to preserve the Grand Prix series, the ISU asked other ISU members to apply as hosts for the originally scheduled dates. In addition to the successful bid from the Federazione Italiana Sport del Ghiaccio, the ISU received applications from the Hungarian Skating Federation and U.S. Figure Skating.
