Weltklasse Zürich 2026 is sold out – faster than ever before in the history of this prestigious athletics meeting. Demand for the highly sought-after tickets was overwhelming: within the Weltklasse Zürich community, available seats were snapped up in record time. Following the start of today’s public ticket sale, it was less than an hour until no tickets remained.
For the first time this year, tickets for Weltklasse Zürich at Letzigrund Stadium and for Weltklasse Zürich at Zurich Main Station were offered simultaneously. The event in the heart of the city – featuring the women’s pole vault and top athletes such as Angelica Moser – was also extremely popular and sold out within a very short time.
Even faster than last year – sustained high demand
“The ticket sale this year once again exceeded our already high expectations,” says Co-Meeting Director Christoph Joho. “What we experienced among athletics fans was exceptional. Demand for tickets was higher than ever. Months ahead of the meeting, both Letzigrund Stadium and Zurich Main Station are already completely sold out.”
Success driven by community, strong brand & successful Swiss stars
Joho sees the key to this success on several levels: “Over the years, we have consistently invested in building close relationships with our fans and developing a strong community – and it is paying off. They are the foundation of Weltklasse Zürich. The event stands for everything that makes sport so unique: excellence, emotion, inspiration and sustainability. At the same time, we are witnessing an extremely successful period for Swiss athletics. Our top athletes inspire world-class performances and create a strong sense of identification.”
Weltklasse Zürich – athletics on two stages
On August 27, 2026, Letzigrund Stadium will once again become the stage for international top performances. The meeting is complemented by the spectacular competition at Zurich Main Station the day before: Weltklasse Zürich brings athletics directly to the fans in the heart of the city, creating an additional and truly unique event experience.
