The Diamond League has announced the 14 meetings and 1 final for the 2020 season. A discussion was held on the disciplines to be included in the 90-minute international broadcast window with a review of the fan, athlete and broadcast research.
Diamond League 2019 date and venues
The UK Diamond League events will see the switch of venues from Birmingham to Gateshead, as Birmingham’s stadium is being redeveloped for the 2022 Commonwealth Games so is not available to host the IAAF Diamond League, and there will be a second Diamond League meeting in China. The dates for the Diamond League meetings in 2020 are listed below.
Further work is being undertaken on whether each meeting is able to host 11 or 12 Diamond League disciplines in the set time frame and which events each meeting will host outside the 90-minute broadcast window. A final decision on the disciplines will be made at the beginning of November 2019.
The dates for the Diamond League meetings in 2020 are:
Doha – 17 April
China (venue to be advised) – 10 May
Shanghai – 16 May
Stockholm – 24 May
Rome – 28 May
Rabat – 31 May
