The IPSC Action Air World Shoot is the highest level Action Air match within the International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC). The Action Air World Shoots are currently held triennially on the same cycle as the IPSC Shotgun World Shoots.

The first Action Air World Shoot was held in 2018 at the KITEC Exhibition Centre in Hong Kong.[1][2]

The second Action Air World Shoot was originally to be held in Sochi, Russia.[3][4] However, in reaction to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the IPSC cancelled it along with all scheduled and future level 3 and above international competitions in Russia.[5][6]
