Simone Biles and Athleta Presents Gold
Over America Tour Lights Up 30 U.S. Arenas this Fall (Graphic:

Following the success of the 2021 tour, the Athleta Presents
Gold Over America Tour is an exhilarating display of
jaw-dropping athleticism and high-energy choreography with an
inspirational message of hope, strength, resilience, and
determination. Led by Biles, the most decorated gymnast of all
time, the Athleta Presents Gold Over America Tour—or GOAT,
its sublime acronym—will have audiences on the edge of their seat
with every tumble, twist and gravity-defying trick.
“From the world’s stage to the GOAT stage, this incredible
journey continues, and I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in
store this year,” says Biles. “I love creating unforgettable
memories for our audiences every night on tour.”
This pop concert-style spectacle will showcase the athletic
brilliance and championship journeys of Biles and cast members
Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Katelyn Ohashi, Peng-Peng Lee,
Shilese Jones, Fred Richard, Mélanie Johanna De Jesus
Dos Santos, Kayla Dicello, Evita Griskenas, Casimir
Schmidt and more.
“We’ve put together an all-new show unlike anything that’s been
staged before with gymnastics,” says Director and Creator Mark
“Swany” Swanhart. “Simone is one of the best collaborative partners
I’ve ever worked with.”
Following a two-year break from the sport, Biles returned in
2023 with a history-making performance at the World Championships
where she won four gold medals and added another skill – The Biles
II (vault) - to the Code of Points. The first woman to capture six
titles, Biles is the most decorated gymnast in history (female or
male) with 37 medals overall (23 gold) and is a seven-time Olympic
medalist (four gold). A three-time Laureus World Sportswoman of the
Year and Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year, she has
earned the rare distinction of having five skills named in her
honor – The Biles – in the beam, floor (two) and vault (two)
disciplines. Team USA vaulted from fourth to third in the final two
rotations to win the men’s team bronze medal at the FIG Artistic
World Championships. Fred Richard made history, becoming only the
fourth and youngest U.S. man to win an all-around medal.
“The Gold Over America Tour enables fans to see some of the
world’s best gymnasts in a celebratory, non-competitive
environment,” USA Gymnastics President and CEO Li Li Leung said.
“Having the tour at the end of one of the biggest years ever for
the sport provides a great opportunity for athletes and fans
alike.”
The creative team for the tour includes Director Mark “Swany”
Swanhart and Associate Director Louanne Madorma, along with
world-renowned gymnastics coach Valorie “Miss Val" Kondos Field,
who serves as Supervising Choreographer for the tour.
Biles’ long-term apparel partner, Athleta, returns as the title
sponsor supporting the brand’s “Find Your Movement” rally cry and
mission to build confidence, strength and belonging through
movement. Gold sponsors include SPIETH and GK; Spieth is the global
leader in gymnastics equipment with over 190 years of tradition,
innovative design and athlete-proven performance. GK is the largest
gymnastics apparel brand in the world and has been crafting the
best fitting apparel for more than 40 years. Supplier sponsor K18
is a biology-first haircare company with clinically proven,
high-performance results that transform hair routines and lives.

and reflect the tour's dedication to empowering athletes and fans
alike.
