Women's events at the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships^[1][2] were first held in 1934 at the 10th World Championships. Only the All-Around and Team events were held. In 1950, at the 12th World Championships, the other apparatus events were added.

The women's individual all-around event was not held in 1992, 1996, and 2002.

Three medals are awarded: gold for first place, silver for second place, and bronze for third place. Tie breakers have not been used in every year. In the event of a tie between two gymnasts, both names are listed, and the following position (second for a tie for first, third for a tie for second) is left empty because a medal was not awarded for that position. If three gymnastics tied for a position, the following two positions are left empty.
