The countdown has officially begun. The crowd at the Comunale is ready to bring all its warmth to a star-studded lineup that promises fireworks on the track and in the field. This year, Galathletics confirms its status as a must-attend event, bringing the very best of Swiss and international athletics to Ticino.

Swiss Excellence:

There was a time when hosting major meetings meant looking almost exclusively at international stars. Today, that is no longer the case. Swiss athletics is experiencing a golden age, producing champions capable not just of competing, but of winning and dominating on a global stage. Having a Swiss lineup of this calibre at Galathletics is not only a matter of national pride, but a guarantee of treating our audience to a world-class show.

Here are the first extraordinary protagonists who will set the track on fire:

Ditaji Kambundji: The world champion will be at the starting blocks for the 100m hurdles.

Audrey Werro: Fresh off her silver medal at the Indoor Championships in Toruń and her title as Swiss champion. She arrives in Ticino following a legendary performance at the Stockholm Diamond League, where she set a meeting record by breaking the 1:54 barrier (the third-fastest time in the history of the discipline).

Mujinga Kambundji: The highly anticipated return to competition after maternity leave for the undisputed queen of Swiss sprinting, backed by a unique pedigree that boasts double indoor world gold in the 60m and double European gold in the 200m.

Angelica Moser: A great and welcome return for the pole vaulter, European gold medallist both outdoors and indoors, and a brilliant fourth-place finisher at the Paris Olympics.

A grand return to the Comunale for our two local favourites: Ajla Del Ponte and Ricky Petrucciani are ready to give their all and soak in the embrace of their home crowd.

But the surprises don’t end here. Alongside the icons of Swiss athletics, the Galathletics cast will be enriched by the presence of numerous world, European, and Olympic champions, who will be revealed in the coming weeks.
