UK Sport welcomes bid for the 2029 World Athletics Championships
The bid announcement belongs to the August archive.
Source publication date:
UK Sport welcomed submission of a bid to host the 2029 World Athletics Championships in a publication dated 6 August 2026.
At the time of the announcement, World Athletics was expected to confirm the host in September. A submitted bid is not an award of hosting rights; the two stages must remain separate in a chronological record.
This report preserves the status documented on 6 August. It does not infer the outcome of the subsequent selection process. The original UK Sport statement provides the institutional context for the proposal.
