Doha: The Qatar Athletics Federation has announced that the Doha Diamond League Meeting will take place at Suhaim bin Hamad Stadium at Qatar Sports Club on June 19, instead of Khalifa International Stadium.
The federation said through its official social media accounts that the meeting will feature a number of leading Olympic and world medalists, as well as record holders in track and field events, competing across 14 events for both men and women.
The federation also confirmed the participation of Qatar’s Olympic and world champion Mutaz Essa Barshim in the high jump competition, marking his return to the Doha meeting after an absence of two seasons due to injury.
The Diamond League Board had earlier announced the participation of Armand Duplantis, world record holder in pole vault and winner of the 2025 Diamond Trophy, alongside several prominent athletes in the same event.
The Doha meeting is considered one of the most important stops on the international athletics calendar due to its high technical and organizational standards, attracting many of the world’s top athletes each season.
This year’s Doha Diamond League program includes the 100m, 200m, 110m hurdles, 3000m steeplechase, 400m hurdles, 800m, 400m, 1500m, and 5000m races, in addition to pole vault, high jump, javelin throw, and triple jump events for both men and women.
