The Executive Board met prior to the start of the World Triathlon Championship Finals in Pontevedra, where it confirmed six events on the top-tier Championship Series for 2023, three of which are set to include mixed relays, 11 World Triathlon Cup events and nine Para triathlon competitions.

The calendar also includes a Mixed Relay Olympic Qualification Event in the Mexican resort of Huatulco on May 19, the World Triathlon Multisport Championships in the Australian city of Townsville from August 15 to 25, and the World Triathlon Powerman Long Distance Duathlon Championships in the Swiss city of Zofingen.

For the second year running, the Championship Series is set to start in the United Arab Emirates' capital Abu Dhabi with sprint distance races and a mixed relay on March 2 and 3, followed by two standard distance events in Yokohama in Japan on May 11 and Cagliari in Italy on May 25 and 26, representing the final opportunity for Paris 2024 qualification ranking points.

Hamburg in Germany is set to stage the final Championship Series stop before Paris 2024 on July 14 including a mixed relay, with Olympic individual events in the French capital then taking place on July 30 and 31 and the mixed relay on August 5.

Four World Cups are planned within the qualification period - a sprint event in New Plymouth in New Zealand on March 9 and 10, a first indoor event in Lievin in France on March 30, Samarkand in Uzbekistan's first staging of an event on the circuit with standard distance competition from May 17 to 19, the same dates as a sprint World Cup in Huatulco.
