The expanded tour broadens the geographical spread of meetings around the world and incorporates additional continental area level competitions. From seven meetings in 2020, the tour has grown to offer 24 in 2021, 33 in 2022 and now 54 in 2023.

In its eighth season, the World Athletics Indoor Tour will feature seven Gold level meetings, kicking off in Karlsruhe on 27 January and culminating with the Final in Birmingham on 25 February. The season also features Silver, Bronze and Challenger meetings.
