IAAF president Lamine Diack said the two-day competition will “bring together the world’s best athletes” in a schedule that includes the 4x100 and 4x400-metre races as well as the 4x200, 4x800 and 4x1500 relays.
The athletes will be competing for $1.4 million in prize money.
The World Relays will reportedly serve as qualifiers for the World Championships as well as the Olympic Games.
