The event was held between 7–9 March 2014 at the Ergo Arena in Sopot, Poland. Preparation Host bidding The IAAF announced on 1 September 2011 that it had received bids from Poland and Croatia to host the championships. Later Zagreb, Croatia withdrew due to lack of funding. On 11 November 2011 at a Council meeting in Monaco, the IAAF announced that Sopot, as the only remaining bidder, would host the championships. Budapest, Hungary had shown interest but eventually did not bid. Venue thumb|Ergo Arena The Championships were held at the Ergo Arena, opened in 2010, on the border of the cities of Sopot and Gdańsk. For the Championships it seated 11,000.http://sopot2014.com/uploads/ckfinder/en_UK/files/25_02_MEDIA%20GUIDE_interactive_FINAL_CMYK.pdf Media Guide Sopot 2014 Official Site 27 February 2014 6 March 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140306093255/http://sopot2014.com/uploads/ckfinder/en_UK/files/25_02_MEDIA%20GUIDE_interactive_FINAL_CMYK.pdf dead For the competition a six-lane, banked 200-metre oval, with a blue surface, was installed on the arena floor, with an eight-lane straight-away track in the center for the 60-metre sprints and hurdles. The track officially opened on 16 February and almost 6000 people came to the ERGO Arena to mark its inauguration. The indoor portable banked track made by Mondo used the company's "Super X" rubberized surface (two layers, total 13.5 mm thick), which was used at both the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics.http://globenewswire.com/news-release/2014/03/06/616185/10071444/en/Mondo-s-indoor-portable-banked-track-to-serve-as-competition-surface-for-IAAF-World-Indoor-Championships.html Mondo's indoor portable banked track to serve as competition surface for IAAF World Indoor Championships 2014-03-06 Mondo 6 March 2014 After the competition the track has been dismantled and moved permanently to the newly built indoor arena in Toruń.http://www.tvn24.pl/pomorze,42/sopocka-hala-gotowa-na-mistrzostwa-po-imprezie-bieznia-trafi-do-torunia,398451.html Sopocka hala gotowa na mistrzostwa.

athletes were disqualified for stepping over the inside track boundary and onto the in-field. The most high profile of these disqualifications was Poland's Marcin Lewandowski in the men's 800 m final. The host nation athlete originally won the bronze medal but a single step on the in-field led to his disqualification and the promotion of Great Britain's Andrew Osagie into the third podium position.Jalava, Mirko (9 March 2014). Report: men’s 800m final – Sopot 2014. IAAF. Retrieved on 2014-03-09. There was a similar occurrence in the women's 1500 m final, where Rababe Arafi took the bronze and she also received the honour in a medal ceremony. Half an hour afterwards, a review of race footage led to her being disqualified with Canada's Nicole Sifuentes being promoted to bronze position.Minshull, Phil (8 March 2014). Report: women's 1500m final – Sopot 2014. IAAF. Retrieved on 2014-03-09. Nick Willis, the original men's 1500 m fourth placer, was another high-profile disqualification.Smith, Tony (9 March 2014). Nick Willis disqualified at world indoor champs. Stuff. Retrieved on 2014-03-09. Outside of the in-field track infringements, there were a smaller number of disqualifications. Reflecting the more physical nature of indoor competition, Richard Buck, Lisanne de Witte and Ioan Zaizan were all disqualified for obstruction or jostling. Siologa Viliamu Sepa and Musaeb Abdulrahman Balla were removed for lane infringement, while Michael Herreros' performance was erased due to improper hurdling. No athletes fell foul of the false start rule.January 2020 Doping +Athletes disqualified for dopingAthleteNationEventKseniya Ryzhova Russia Women's 4×400 m relayNataliia Lupu Women's 800 metersAnca Heltne Women's shot put The Russian women's 4×400 m relay team was disqualified after Kseniya Ryzhovas doping sample from 7 March was found positive for trimetazidine.http://en.itar-tass.com/sports/735973 https://archive.today/20140613204442/http://en.itar-tass.com/sports/735973 dead 13 June 2014 Russian athlete Ksenya Ryzhova disqualified for nine months for doping ITAR-TASS 13 June 2014IAAF: IAAF World Indoor Championships > IAAF World Indoor Championships 2014 > 4x400 Metres Relay - womenREVISED RESULTS 4 x 400 Metres Relay Women - Final Nataliia Lupu (UKR) was disqualified from the Women's 800 meters after her doping sample was found positive for Methylhexaneamine.IAAF: Athletes currently suspended from all competitions in athletics following an Anti-Doping Rule Violation as at: 31.10.14IAAF: Revised RESULTS 800 Metres Women - Final The Romanian shot putter Anca Heltne took part in the championships but was disqualified from all her results after a doping control carried out on 7 February 2014 showed she'd been using the anabolic steroids Dianabol and Oral Turinabol.Doping sanctions - News 155, Positive cases in athletics SANCTIONED ACCORDING TO INFORMATION RECEIVED BY THE IAAF AS OF JULY – AUGUST 2014Anca Heltne.
