Müller British Grand Prix
British Athletics is committed to protecting the health and safety of spectators and to making all events as Covid-secure as possible. To do this, we ask that all spectators behave in a safe and responsible manner. By attending this event, you are agreeing to comply with this code of conduct.
It is impossible for us to eliminate the risk of Covid-19 entirely. You should consider the risks of attending this event based on your personal circumstances and if you feel uncomfortable, you should not attend.
To help protect you, your fellow spectators, our staff and the wider community, we need everyone to comply with this code of conduct. Any breach may result in you being asked to leave the venue.
Before the event
- You should not attend if you, or anyone in your household, feels unwell. If you or anyone in your household have shown symptoms of Covid-19 within the last 10 days, you should not attend unless you have had a negative PCR test result. Covid-19 symptoms include:
- A new, continuous cough
- A high temperature
- A loss or change to your sense of taste or smell
- You should not attend if you have been instructed to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace, even if you have no symptoms or have had a negative Covid-19 test.
- All spectators aged 12 and over are strongly encouraged to carry out lateral flow testing twice a week, before and after the event. Do not attend if you test positive. You can collect free testing kits from local pharmacies and community sites, or order online or by phone for home delivery: nhs.uk/gettested
Lateral flow tests should only be used by people without symptoms. If you develop symptoms, you must arrange a PCR test straight away and self-isolate until you get the results – even if your lateral flow test result is negative. PCR tests can be booked via 119 or online at https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test
- If you cannot attend the event for any of these reasons, your tickets will be refunded.

- You must sit in the seat assigned to you on your ticket. Once seated, please stay in your seat as much as possible throughout the event. If you do need to leave your seat, wait until the area is as clear as possible. If you need to pass other spectators on your row, avoid face to face contact.
