Here is all you need to know about Diamond League 2024 including its schedule, date, venue, prize money and more
Athletic tournaments spanning multiple disciplines are performed annually as part of the Diamond League and the 15th edition of the tournament is drawing near, organised by World Athletics
In 2024, the Diamond League will hold its third meeting in Doha. There will not be a men’s javelin throw Diamond League event for the first two meetings in Xiamen and Shanghai.
Fifteen of the world’s most esteemed one-day track and field competitions will take place in 2024. Similar to past years, competitors will engage in 14 series encounters to earn points, with the top performers in each discipline earning a spot in the Wanda Diamond League Final at the conclusion of the campaign.
Diamond League 2024 men’s and women’s schedule, dates, venues, tickets, events list and prize money
Neeraj Chopra, the current Olympic champion in the men’s javelin, will start his 2024 campaign in May at the Doha Diamond League Meet. Chopra’s participation in the Doha competition will mark the beginning of a significant phase as the 2024 Paris Olympics draw near.
Last season, he placed second in the Diamond League, trailing only the silver medallist from Tokyo 2020, Jakub Vadlejch of the Czech Republic.
Meanwhile, athletes win points in each of the 14 series meetings according to their standings; the first spot earns eight points, second place earns seven, and so on down to the eighth place, which receives one point.
The top eight and top six in track and field events, respectively, qualify for the final, with the exception of the top 10 in long-distance and 1500-meter competitions. Through a national or international wildcard entry, one athlete may also qualify in each discipline.
To obtain the title of Diamond League Champion in their respective disciplines, qualified athletes will compete in a dramatic winner-take-all match at the final. Here is all you need to know about the tournament.
When and where will the Diamond League 2024 be held?
A Chinese double bill, featuring performances in Xiamen on April 20 and Shanghai on April 27, will kick off the season. On May 30 and June 2, the series will travel to Oslo and Stockholm for its first European meetings, after stopping in Doha, Rabat, and Eugene.
Athletes will have the opportunity to train for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in July at gatherings in Paris, Monaco, and London. There will be four more opportunities to get points following the Olympics: Lausanne, Silesia, Rome, and Zurich; these will come before the season finale on September 13–14.
