Because of the forecast of heavy rain on Thursday, August 28, 2025, the organizers of Weltklasse Zürich have decided to move the women’s pole vault to an earlier date.
To ensure the athletes’ safety and the smooth execution of the Wanda Diamond League pole vault final, the women’s competition will also take place at Sechseläutenplatz. The women’s event – featuring, among others, world champion Katie Moon (USA) and European champion Angelica Moser (LC Zürich) – will now start on Wednesday, August 27, 2025, at 2:30 p.m.
“The safety of the athletes and the successful staging of the competition are our top priorities. Given the weather forecast, this decision was unavoidable. The athletes are now also looking forward to the special atmosphere at Sechseläutenplatz,” says Andreas Hediger, Co-Meeting Director of Weltklasse Zürich.
The Weltklasse Zürich media team will ensure access to media seats in the See grandstand, as well as provide the usual photo service and support for media zone activities (unilateral, mixed zone, etc.).
Tickets purchased for Wednesday evening’s competitions will also be valid for the women’s pole vault in the early afternoon. The grandstands will open at 2:00 p.m.
