Best moments at the London Diamond League

Over the years, the London Diamond League has showered us with many a memorable moment. The most notable among these is naturally Kendra Harrison's world record from 2016, as she ran the 100 meter hurdles in just 12.20. You can enjoy both her world records from that season via the video below.





In the 2025 London meet Lithuanian discus thrower Mykolas Alekna drew the biggest headlines, as he launched the 2kg disc to a Diamond League record of 71.70 meters. Still, his world record of 75.56m is miles ahead and it's a shame that there isn't a men's discus competition this year.

However, we will be getting a rerun of the epic 800m race of last year, as Emmanuel Wanyonyi of Kenya, Marco Arop of Canada and the home crowd's favourite Max Burgin will duke it out again. In 2025 Wanyonyi came out on top with a meeting record of 1:42.00, while Burgin managed a PB of just 36 hundredths of a second slower.

Before the times of the Diamond League, the standout moment of the London meet came without a doubt in 2005. The legendary Yelena Isinbaeva was in top form that day in the women's pole vault, first bettering her world record to 4.96, and finally becoming the first woman ever to clear 5 meters.

London Diamond League 2026 stadium & history

Over the years, the London meet has been a part of a number of different athletics series, such as the IAAF Grand Prix's, IAAF Super Grand Prix's and finally the Diamond League. In 2026 the London Diamond League stadium will yet again be the London Stadium, that famously hosted the 2012 Olympics.

The yearly athletics meet was established as early as 1953, and has been held every single year since then apart from the covid-hit 2020. In addition to London, Glasgow, Gateshead and Birmingham have also hosted the meet. Birmingham is also hosting the Athletics European Championships this year.
