The Armory Foundation has announced the cancellation of the 2020 Millrose Games, due to the increases in Covid 19 and after consulting with public health officials. This means that the Millrose Games will happen again in 2022.

There have been rumors on the sponsor side as well, with comments that two major sponsors could not see their way to help in 2021. To put on a meeting like Millrose requires a sizable investment in cash, volunteers and staff.

The Millrose Games, the world’s most prestigious indoor track & field meet, will return to The Armory on February 12, 2022.

NEW YORK, December 22, 2020 – The Armory Foundation has decided after extensive consultations with health experts that, due to rising cases nationally of Covid-19, it is advisable to cancel the 114th Millrose Games, previously scheduled for February 13, 2021 at The Armory in New York City.

First run in 1908, the Millrose Games has featured legends such as Paavo Nurmi, Eamonn Coghlan, Allyson Felix, Joetta Clark, Carl Lewis, Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Bernard Lagat and many others. However, given the health situation in New York and across the country, the prudent thing to do is to abstain this coming year.

Said Millrose Games Meet Director Ray Flynn: “Canceling the iconic Millrose Games was a very difficult decision, but with all the health concerns surrounding an event of this complexity, rather than risking the athletes, officials, meet personnel, media and others, we have decided to wait until February 12, 2022, for the next edition of the Millrose Games.”
