The IAAF World Championships, Beijing 2015 will take place between 22-30 August.
“I am delighted to hear that the latest sales chart indicates that we will have a full house for all the evening sessions and that for the morning sessions the stadium will be at around 90% capacity. This is a magnificent effort from everyone involved with the Local Organising Committee,” commented President Diack.
“I am sure that these championships will capture the imagination of everyone who is in the stadium in person and the hundreds of millions of viewers on television around the world; and that they will leave a lasting impression and legacy, especially on the youth of China.”
