The 17th IAAF World Indoor Championships took place from March 1st to 4th, 2018 in Birmingham , United Kingdom .

The British city was awarded the IAAF contract in 2013 . She had applied for the 2016 indoor world championships , but because IAAF events were planned in Great Britain in 2016 (half marathon) and 2017 (outdoor world championships), the American city of Portland was preferred and Birmingham was designated as the venue for the indoor world championships for 2018.

The competitions took place in the 8,000-seat Birmingham Arena , where the 2003 World Indoor Championships were held. Around 400 athletes from 150 nations were expected. According to the preliminary start list, a total of 632 athletes, 334 men and 298 women, from 144 countries competed.
