Diamond League 2025

Diamond League (Wanda Diamond League) is the top-tier track and field competition series organized by World Athletics, which started in 2010. Before the Diamond League, World Athletics (then known as IAAF) ran its top-tier series under the name Golden League.

In the 2025 season, the Diamond League features a total of 15 meetings across four continents. In addition to Europe, events will be held in the United States, Asia, and Africa. The season will culminate at the end of August in a two-day final event in Zurich, Switzerland.

Traditionally, the Diamond League has extended into September, but this year the schedule is moved earlier due to the World Athletics Championships taking place in Tokyo, Japan, from September 13 to 21.

The 2025 Diamond League season kicks off with two events in China. The traditional season opener in Doha, Qatar, will follow the Chinese meetings as the third competition of the season. After China and Qatar, the Diamond League tour heads through Morocco to Europe, where the next four meetings will take place.

Eugene, USA, will host a meet in early July, and after the North American leg, six more Diamond League events will take place in Europe.

Diamond League – History & Stats

Several Diamond League events are considered even tougher than championship finals. This is because major championships have national quotas, which means that many top African distance runners, for example, don’t make it into those races.

The Diamond League is especially known as a place for fast distance times, also thanks to the use of pacemakers – something not seen in major championships.
