Weltklasse Zürich (English: World Class Zurich) is an annual, invitation-only, world-class track and field meeting at the Letzigrund in Zürich, Switzerland, generally held at the end of August or beginning of September. Previously one of the IAAF Golden League events, it now serves as a final of the Wanda Diamond League, alongside Memorial Van Damme between 2010 and 2019. In 2021 and 2022, Weltklasse Zürich served as the sole final of the Diamond League,[2] and this is also planned for 2025 and 2027.[3]

One of the first large-scale international athletics events (outside the Summer Olympics), it is sometimes referred to as the one-day Olympics. Weltklasse Zürich first took place on 12 August 1928. In the beginning, the meeting was nicknamed by the public the "Nurmi meeting" after the most admired and celebrated participant at the time, Paavo Nurmi. On 21 June 1960, on the Letzigrund track, Armin Hary became the first human to run the 100 m dash in 10.0 seconds.

UBS has supported Weltklasse Zürich as its main sponsor since 1981.[4] Other sponsors are Vaudoise Assurances, Migros, Le Gruyère Switzerland, Medica, Omega, Swiss, Lexus, Erdgas and Puma.[5]

History

[edit]

The meeting was conceived in 1924 by the athletic section of the FC Zürich which became the Leichtathletik Club Zürich in 1934, and was first held at the Letzigrund on a dirt track on 12 August 1928 as the Internationales Leichtathletik-Meeting in Zürich.[6][7] Since 1935 it also became known as the "American Meeting",[8][9][10] similar to the Bislett Games, and this continued into the 1950's.[11][12] A notable hiatus occurred after the 1952 meeting[13] until the rebuilt Letzigrund Stadium opened in 1958,[14] although a meeting had still been planned for August 1954.[15] The name "Weltklasse Zürich" was adopted in 1959.[16] The meet would not be held regularly on an annual basis until 1973, and the Weltklasse introduced electronic timing the following year.[6]

Track surface

[edit]

The first surface was made of dirt in 1928, and the first synthetic track surface in Europe was installed in 1968.[17][6] The number of lanes was increased to eight in the early 1970s which forced the Weltklasse to be put on hold for two years for the construction to take place.[18][6]

The current surface at the Letzigrund Stadium was developed in 2014 by the Swiss company CONICA.[19][20][21] The new surface was installed in June 2014 at a cost of 800,000 CHF and was paid for by the city of Zurich, which owns Letzigrund Stadium.[22]
