“Join the excitement at The Gold Over America Tour, starring Simone Biles and featuring squad members Shilese Jones, Fred Richard, Mélanie Johanna De Jesus Dos Santos, and more,” says the tour’s website. “This celebration of world-class gymnastics is designed to inspire the next generation of champions.”
The tour, presented by Athleta, will hit 30 arenas nationwide, “delivering a high-octane, action-packed experience” in a pop concert-style setting, the site promises. “Following the success of the 2021 tour, the 2024 edition will embody hope, strength, resilience, and determination.”
The Gold Over America Tour (abbreviated by organizers, appropriately, as G.O.A.T.) will take place just months after the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, at which Biles is expected to contend.

That “road to Paris” will run through Texas at the 2024 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships, taking place May 30-June 2 at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena. Tickets are now on sale. The four-day men’s and women’s competition will crown national champions and determine the members of the U.S. National Team who will then compete at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Minneapolis, June 27-30, 2024.
Even among her fellow superstars, Biles ranks as the greatest female gymnast of all time. The native Houstonian now boasts 34 world and Olympic medals: seven Olympic medals and 27 world championship medals — 21 of which are gold. Most recently, she won the all-around gold medal on at the 2023 Artistic Gymnastics World Championships in Antwerp, Belgium.
The first Gold Over America Tour took place following the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo. Despite Biles’ withdrawal from much of the Olympic competition due to mental health challenges, she headlined the G.O.A.T. tour and performed alongside a “supersquad” of gymnasts – Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Grace McCallum, MyKayla Skinner, and more. They performed for full, exuberant crowds inside several Texas arenas in October 2021.
