From 10–16 August 2026, Birmingham becomes the epicentre of European sport as the European Athletics Championships come to the United Kingdom for the very first time. This unmissable event offers 7 days of world-class action, thrilling finals, and the roar of a home crowd cheering for glory.

The newly redeveloped Alexander Stadium, already celebrated for its sell-out success during the 2022 Commonwealth Games, will again take the spotlight. As the home of UK Athletics, it welcomes over 1,500 elite athletes from 50+ nations in a week of high-octane track and field competition.

Each session is categorised by event type, including medal finals, to help you choose the perfect experience — whether you’re a die-hard athletics fan or attending your very first competition.
