London 2017 will be the eighth edition of the World Para Athletics Championships, and the first since IPC Athletics was rebranded to World Para Athletics.  July’s event also marks the first time that the Championships have been held back-to-back with the IAAF equivalent. It will be from the 14th till the 23rd of July.

The last Championships were held in Doha, Qatar, in October 2015 and attracted 1,229 athletes from 90 countries.  China topped the medals table picking up 85 medals, 41 of which were gold. An impressive 54 world records were set during the 10 days of competition.

Why don’t you make a reservation for those dates at Park Villa in Mile End. We are just one stop in the underground to Stratford, where the Olympic Stadium is!
