In the first 7 editions of the Diamond League, each of the 16 events was contested 6 times (for each sex) in the pre-Final meets before all were staged in the finales in Zürich and Brussels.
For the ’17 season there were only 8 such disciplines: 100, 200, 400, 800, 1500/Mile, 110H, HJ & PV. It was down to 4 appearances at the other 8 events: steeple, 3000/5000, 400H, LJ, TJ, SP, DT, JT… For ’18, the 400H was moved back to the list of events contested in 6 non-final meets, and there are no changes for ’19…
As always, there is nothing (well, other than financial constraints) to stop meets from adding events that aren’t on their DL roster, although they don’t count in an athlete’s DL point totals.
Here’s this year’s distribution (the meets in each event are listed in chronological order in which they will be contested):
