Events to look out for:
The Men’s 100 Metre Heats featuring Zarnel Hughes, who has run the fastest time in the world this year, will open the Manchester event at 11.30.
It will precede the women’s heats, which will begin at 12.35 and is World Champion Dina Asher-Smith’s first event of the weekend.
Finals for both events will be later in the day: the men’s at 19.22 and the women’s at 19.32.
Matthew Hudson-Smith will be one to watch in the men’s 400m, with the heats at 16.05 on Saturday, before the finals at 16.00 on Sunday.
After winning world bronze, Commonwealth Games silver and European gold in 2022, Hudson-Smith will hope to continue his success and be victorious in Manchester.
One of the last events of the weekend will be the women’s 800m on Sunday at 16:40, and national record holder Keely Hodgkinson is a strong favourite to claim a third national title.
The 21-year-old will be joined by fellow Olympic finalists Jemma Reekie and Alex Bell, who will likely pose some serious contest for the silver medal.
