The Diamond League, track and field’s premier international circuit, is scheduled to have 15 meets in 2023, the most in the series’ 14 seasons.
The season begins as usual in Doha in early May and ends, for the first time, in the U.S. with Oregon’s Prefontaine Classic designated the Diamond League Final on Sept. 16-17.
A meet in Silesia, Poland, was added as a full-time stop to the usual 14-meet lineup. Last year, Silesia was a late addition to replace two Chinese events that were, for a third consecutive year, canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The meets in Shanghai (July 29) and Shenzhen (Aug. 3) are back on the calendar in 2023.
The Diamond League wraps around August’s world championships in Budapest.
