The 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships was the 19th edition of the international indoor track and field competition, organised by the World Athletics. The event was held between 1–3 March at the Commonwealth Arena in Glasgow, United Kingdom.

It was the third time, after Birmingham 2003 and 2018, that the World Indoor Championships were held in the United Kingdom, and the first time in Scotland. Glasgow hosted the European Athletics Indoor Championships in 1990 and 2019, and as in the latter, the competitions again took place at the Commonwealth Arena.

The event was five months before the 2024 Summer Olympics and was a part of the qualification process.[1]

Bidding process

[edit]

Bidding began in March 2021 with final presentations in the autumn that year. Glasgow, Toruń of Poland and Almaty in Kazakhstan submitted bids to host the 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships. On 1 December 2021, at their meeting in Monaco, the World Athletics Council chose Glasgow to host the 19th edition of championships.[2][3][4]

Qualification criteria

[edit]

In individual events except Combined Events athletes could qualify by achieving the Entry Standard within the qualification period or by World Indoor Tour Wildcard (2023 or 2024) or by virtue of their position in the World Rankings as of 18 February 2024. The qualification period runs from 1 January 2023 to 18 February 2024. Each Member Federation will be allowed to participate with a maximum of two qualified athletes (three in case of a Wild Card) in each event. Countries who have no male and/or no female qualified athletes (eligible by Entry Standard) in any event may enter one unqualified male athlete or one unqualified female athlete in a running event (except the 800 m). If the host nation does not have a qualified athlete in an event, it may enter one athlete in this event regardless of any Entry Standard (except for the Combined Events). In Combined Events 12 athletes will be invited in the men's heptathlon and women's pentathlon as follows: the winner of the 2023 World Combined Events Tour, the five best athletes from the 2023 Outdoor Lists (maximum one per country), the five best athletes from the 2024 Indoor Lists (as of 11 February 2024) and one athlete at the discretion of World Athletics. In Relays there is no entry standard and each Member Federation will be able to enter one team of up to eight athletes in each event.[6]

All athletes born before and including 2008 (aged at least 16 years on 31 December 2024) are eligible to compete, except for the men's shot put where the limit is 2006 (athletes aged at least 18 years on 31 December 2024).[6]
