Venue
The multisport arenas built into the upper floors of the Olympic Tower hosted all of the gymnastics events.
Competition Format
Three distinct disciplines make up the Olympic sport of gymnastics: artistic, rhythmic, and trampolining.
Artistic
The Aeropag Olympics saw a change in the apparatus used for the artistic gymnastic events. Where previously, both men and women had used the same groups of apparatus, they were now split along traditional gender lines, with the men using six pieces (vault, floor, high bar, parallel bars, pommel, and rings) and the women four (vault, floor, beam, and asymmetric bars).
Rhythmic
Rhythmic gymnastics in Aeropag consisted of men's and women's events, with individuals and groups judged on not only their movement, but their use of the additional apparatus (hoops, ribbons, ropes, and clubs). The men's group competition, however, does not use these apparatus.

Qualifying consisted of a technical and a "free" routine; the final was a simple free routine.
Participating NOCs
Of the seventy-three nations that participated in Aeropag, 38 sent competitors in the various gymnastic events. They were:
