The 2027 World Athletics Championships is one of sport's most anticipated global events, bringing together the world's best track and field athletes to compete across all Olympic athletics disciplines at Beijing National Stadium — the iconic Bird's Nest arena built for the 2008 Olympic Games. China hosting the World Championships marks a return of elite athletics to the country's most famous sporting venue.
World Athletics Championships are held every two years and sit alongside the Olympic Games as the most prestigious competition in the sport. Beijing's stadium infrastructure, organisational experience, and the symbolic weight of the Bird's Nest make it an exceptional host. Athletes across sprints, distance, jumps, throws, combined events, and race walks will compete for world championship titles over a nine-day programme expected to draw a global television audience of hundreds of millions.
