The championship will take place at the Budapest National Athletics Centre in Hungary.
The inaugural championships are scheduled for three evenings, from September 11-13.
The inaugural 2026 World Athletics Ultimate Championship in Budapest will feature the new mixed 4x100 metres relay where athletes will compete in national kits while representing both themselves and their national teams, the sport's governing body said on Friday as it announced the list of disciplines.
The championship is set to be held every two years with gold medallists receiving $150,000 as part of what World Athletics says is the richest prize pot ever in the sport.
