Συγκεκριμένα, η Ελληνική Ομοσπονδία Πετοσφαίρισης ανακοίνωσε την διεξαγωγή διεθνούς τουρνουά beach volley στην Ίο, το οποίο θα ανήκει στο επίσημο καλεντάρι της Παγκόσμιας Ομοσπονδίας (FIVB) και θα είναι της κατηγορίας ενός αστεριού.
Το τουρνουά θα πραγματοποιηθεί το τριήμερο 14-16 Ιουνίου στο νησί των Κυκλάδων, που μετά το τουρνουά Open το 2018 για το Πανελλήνιο πρωτάθλημα, ανεβάζει κατακόρυφα τον πήχη. Με συνδιοργανωτή και μεγάλο χορηγό την εταιρεία Luxurios στην Ίο και τη στήριξη του Δήμου Ιητών θα φιλοξενήσει διεθνή διοργάνωση το τριήμερο του Αγίου Πνεύματος, στο πλαίσιο του World Tour 2019.
Μαζί με την Ίο, στο επίσημο καλεντάρι της FIVB προστέθηκαν άλλες τρεις διοργανώσεις. Η πρώτη στο Αϊδίνιο στην Τουρκία κατηγορίας δύο αστεριών το τριήμερο 16-19 Μαΐου και οι δύο επόμενες στην Ιταλία. Η αρχή θα γίνει στην Άλμπα από 12 έως 14 Ιουλίου και στη συνέχεια στην Πιναρέλα Ντι Τσέρβια από 25 έως 28 Ιουλίου. Και τα δύο τουρνουά στην Ιταλία θα είναι της κατηγορίας του ενός αστεριού.
Τελευταία φορά που η Ελλάδα φιλοξένησε τουρνουά του παγκοσμίου σιρκουί ήταν το 2006 στο Ολυμπιακό κέντρο beach volley του Φαλήρου, ενώ αντίστοιχες διοργανώσεις είχαν πραγματοποιηθεί σε Ρόδο και Ξυλόκαστρο.
