The 2018 ITTF World Tour was the 23rd season of the International Table Tennis Federation's professional table tennis world tour.[1]

For the first time in its history, the tour included mixed doubles competitions in 2018. They featured at six events: the China Open, Japan Open, Korea Open, Australian Open and Austrian Open, as well as at the Grand Finals. This was to promote the mixed doubles category prior to its inclusion on the 2020 Olympics programme.[2]
