The four first meetings of the 2025 Wanda Diamond League season have announced which disciplines will receive increased prize money at their events in 2025.
According to the new prize money structure introduced for the 2025 season, each series meeting can nominate four “Diamond+ Disciplines” (two male and two female).
These disciplines will offer higher levels of prize money, with the maximum for individual athletes rising from USD 10,000 to USD 20,000.
The Diamond+ Disciplines at Xiamen, Shanghai/Keqiao, Doha and Rabat will be as follows:
Meeting | Diamond+ Disciplines |
Xiamen | 5000m women, high jump women, 110m hurdles men, pole vault men |
Shanghai/Keqiao | 200m women, shot put women, 100m men, 110m hurdles men |
Doha | 1500m women, pole vault women, 400m hurdles men, high jump men |

The Diamond+ Disciplines for the next four meetings - Rome, Oslo, Stockholm and Paris - will be announced in April.
In 2025, Wanda Diamond League meetings will pay out a total of 9.24 million USD in prize money, the highest total pot in the series’ history.
