Since its launch, the Jerusalem Grand Slam has continued to grow year after year, attracting athletes from Israel and around the world while strengthening Jerusalem’s position on the international athletics map. The competition combines a high professional standard, an enthusiastic Israeli crowd and a unique experience that brings spectators closer to the track and the decisive moments of each event.
