The Bofrost Cup on Ice (previously Sparkassen Cup and Nations Cup) is a figure skating competition which takes place annually in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. Figure skaters compete in four disciplines: ladies' singles, men's singles, pairs, and ice dancing. It was part of the Grand Prix series from its inception until 2003, when it was replaced by Cup of China.
The 2004 Bofrost Cup on Ice took place between November 26 and 28. Instead of a short program, singles and pairs perform a jumping and required elements contest, followed then by the long program. Ice dancers perform their original and free dances.
