The 2022 Anniversary Games, officially known as the 2022 Müller Birmingham Diamond League, was the 68th edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting usually held in London, though in 2022 it was held in Birmingham instead. Held on 21 May at Alexander Stadium, it was the second leg of the 2022 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit.

The meeting was highlighted by home crowd wins by Dina Asher-Smith, Keely Hodgkinson, and Laura Muir.[1] Francine Niyonsaba withdrew from the meet due to a visa issue, allowing Dawit Seyaum to win the women's 5000 metres. In the discus, Kristjan Ceh broke the Diamond League record with a 71.27 m throw.[2]
