2015 European Athletics Indoor Championships

[8][9] A year before the championships, the Prague Indoor Meeting was staged as a test event and it received European Athletics permit status.

Libor Varhaník, chairman of the organising committee, specifically aimed to have as many Czech athletes compete in the events as possible in order to build local interest and boost ticket sales.

[12][13] Former international high jumper and European indoor medallist Tomáš Janků was appointed as CEO and committee member of the organising group.

[14] The event also had a dedicated social media presence in the form of a Facebook page and a Twitter feed (@praha2015), as well as an official website.

[15] The competition logo incorporated a stylised version of the skyline of Hradčany – the district around Prague Castle and historical seat of government.
