The Gold Over America Tour, also called Athleta Presents Gold Over America Tour, was a 2021 gymnastics-themed touring show headlined by Simone Biles.
In late 2019, Biles announced her plans to launch an all-woman tour that would be a mixture of sports and entertainment intended to inspire the next generation of female athletes. Slated to take place after the 2020 Summer Olympic Games, the tour was to mount shows in 35 cities.
Former UCLA gymnast Katelyn Ohashi was the first cast member announced, followed by other high-profile gymnasts, including 2020 Olympians Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Grace McCallum, and MyKayla Skinner; and fan-favorites Morgan Hurd, Laurie Hernandez (who also provided the pre-recorded narration for the opening act), and Chellsie Memmel.
The tour ran from September to November 2021, played 34 shows in 32 cities (three dates were cancelled), sold 182,000 tickets, and grossed $19.3 million. One news outlet called it a "gymnastics-meets-pop-concert spectacular".
A second 30-city tour began in fall 2024.
