Simone Biles, the U.S.’ all-time most decorated gymnast, is scheduled to appear at an event in Hartford Nov. 2, when the XL Center hosts the Athleta Presents Gold Over America Tour.

Gymnasts including 2021 Olympic Games teammates Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Grace McCallum will join Biles at the XL Center, with each athlete performing some of their most famous routines, according to MagicSpace Entertainment, which is producing the tour. The event will also highlight their career highlights, personal videos, and social media interactions.

“The show embodies the themes of empowerment and togetherness which was on display in Tokyo," Biles said of the tour. "Together, all the gymnasts on this tour want to inspire the next generation of women and athletes."

The tour launches Sept. 21 in Tucson, Ariz., before stopping in Denver, Los Angeles, Anaheim, Houston, Chicago, Detroit, Columbus, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Newark. It's penultimate show will be at Hartford's XL Center Nov. 2, followed by a final show in Boston Nov. 7.
