Which city hosts the 2026 Diamond League leg called London?

The story behind the answer

The 2026 Diamond League leg called London is hosted by London.

It is scheduled as the series’ 11th meeting, on 18 July 2026. The meeting is officially listed as the London Athletics Meet, continuing the long-running London stop on the world’s leading outdoor athletics circuit.

The name can cause confusion because Diamond League meetings are sometimes identified by their event title, host city, or stadium. Here, “London” refers to the host city, while London Stadium is the venue. The meet has also previously been promoted under names such as the London Grand Prix, Anniversary Games, and London Diamond League.

London’s place on the calendar reflects the city’s deep athletics history. The meeting dates back to 1953 and became part of the Diamond League when that series launched in 2010. Although some editions were temporarily staged outside London—including Glasgow in 2014, Gateshead in 2021, and Birmingham in 2022—the 2026 schedule identifies the host city as London.
