The VOTS2025 workshop is the thirteenth annual benchmarking activity of the VOT initiative, which has successfully identified key trends in tracking research, most recently the rise of video segmentation models as a promising direction for general object tracking. Continuing to connect the tracking community, VOTS2025 pushes the boundaries of tracking research. The workshop will present results of 32 trackers from three sub-challenges, focusing on holistic targets, targets undergoing topological transformations, and real-time tracking. Additionally, the program features presentations of winning methods, a panel discussion, and keynotes outlining future directions in object tracking and video understanding.
