Preparations are well underway behind the scenes for the 16th Gyulai István Memorial – Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix. Organizers are working at full speed to ensure that on July 14, fans can once again enjoy a world-class evening of athletics at the National Athletic Centre.

Negotiations with international star athletes and their managers are ongoing. While the final lineup is being assembled, one major highlight is already confirmed: as he personally announced, the sport’s global superstar, Armand Duplantis, will be returning! Beyond the field of competitors, all organizational tasks are progressing at full pace. Ticket sales are also looking promising, with significant interest from fans already being recorded.

The summer event is a primary target for Hungarian athletes as well, offering them the chance to compete on home soil alongside international icons. Training is happening across the country, as the key milestones of the season lead toward both the European Championships in Birmingham this August and the Gyulai Memorial.

Following the memorable moments of recent years, everything is in place for Budapest to once again become a hub for international athletics for one night. On July 14, the legend continues.

Just like last year, a full house is expected in the stands, so it is worth acting fast. Tickets can be purchased via Eventim.
