Government Backs London’s 2029 World Athletics Championships Bid

The UK government has officially backed London’s bid to host the 2029 World Athletics Championships, with a pledge of “significant funding” pending partner contributions.

This crucial support also extends to a UK bid for the 2029 World Para Athletics Championships, potentially held outside the capital.

The news is a major win for British athletics, following concerns about funding and a recent open letter from over 100 athletes urging government action.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the “great national pride” and economic benefits such an event would bring. UK Athletics CEO Jack Buckner and athlete Josh Kerr both highlighted the positive impact on the sport and its ability to inspire future generations.

The announcement comes just after a successful, sold-out Diamond League meeting at London Stadium, underscoring strong public interest.
