The 2015 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships was a Senior ISU figure skating championship held in the 2014–15 season. Skaters competed in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing for the title of Four Continents Champion. The event's name refers to the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, which are four of the continents represented in the Olympic rings, omitting Europe.

In February 2015, the Korea Skating Union organised a competition that was held at the Mokdong Ice Rink in Seoul, South Korea. The rink has a seating capacity of 5,000 spectators.

The 2015 competition featured a total of ninety-one athletes from fifteen nations from North America, Africa, Asia and Oceania. There were twenty-six competitors in the men's event and nineteen competitors in the ladies' event. There was also pair teams and thirteen ice dancing teams.

Qualification

The competition was open to skaters from non-European member nations of the International Skating Union who reach the age of 15 before July 1, 2014. The corresponding competition for European skaters will be the 2015 European Championships.

National associations selected up to three skaters to compete in both singles disciplines and three couples in both Pairs and Ice Dancing. Selection is based on each associations own criteria but the ISU mandates that their selections achieve a minimum technical elements score (TES) at an international event prior to the Four Continents.

Short program

In the Short Program, the Program Component Score (PCS) is calculated by adding the averaged score of each of the five different components (each component is originally out of 10 marks)- Skating Skills (SS), Transitions & Linking Footwork (TR), Performance & Execution (PE), Choreography & Composition (CH) and Interpretation (IN). That total is then multiplied by 1.00. In other words, the Program Component Score is marked out of 50 points.

Short program

In the Short Program, the Program Component Score (PCS) is calculated by adding the averaged score of each of the five different components (each component is originally out of 10 marks)- Skating Skills (SS), Transitions & Linking Footwork (TR), Performance & Execution (PE), Choreography & Composition (CH) and Interpretation (IN). That total is then multiplied by 0.80. In other words, the Program Component Score is marked out of 40 points.
