Duplantis and Mahuchikh confirmed as first international stars for Weltklasse Zürich 2025

Weeks ahead of the event, Weltklasse Zürich is already taking off – with today’s announcement of two absolute global athletics superstars: pole vault phenomenon Mondo Duplantis and high jump ace Yaroslava Mahuchikh. Both are reigning world record holders and Olympic champions from Paris 2024, and they are set to deliver spectacular performances on Zurich’s iconic Sechseläutenplatz. Following the announcement of Swiss fan favourite Simon Ehammer in the long jump, these are the first international headliners to be revealed – and one thing is clear: Weltklasse Zürich 2025 will be a celebration of athletics for all – right in the heart of the city, with free access to the competition venues.
