The IAAF first staged a World Indoor Games in 1985. The event was formally re-titled World Indoor Championships in 1987 and has been staged every 2 years since that date. The championships were held in successive years in 2003 and 2004 as the event was switched from odd to even years to alternate with the main IAAF World (Outdoor) Championships. Entry to the heptathlon and pentathlon events is by invitation only.
