2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships
The 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships will be the 19th edition of the international indoor track and field competition, organised by the World Athletics. The event will be held between 1–3 March at the Commonwealth Arena in Glasgow, United Kingdom. It will be the third time, after Birmingham 2003 and 2018, that the World Indoor Championships will be held in this country, and the first time in Scotland. Glasgow hosted the European Athletics Indoor Championships in 1990 and 2019, and as in the latter, the competitions will again take place at the Commonwealth Arena. The event will come five months before the 2024 Paris Olympics and will be part of the qualification process for these Games. Bidding process
