In 20 weight classes, ten per gender, the lifters will be contesting to determine who is the strongest.

Separate medals will be awarded for the snatch, clean and jerk, and total weight.

The event is a mandatory qualifying event for Paris 2024, meaning athletes must participate to earn a quota spot for next year’s Olympic Games.

Below, you will find a list of all the medallists from the 2023 IWF World Weightlifting Championships.
