A stellar line-up is expected at this year's Kip Keino classic that will be held on May 13 at Moi International Stadium, Kasarani.
So far, organisers have confirmed the inclusion of Jamaican female sprint icon Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, who is billed to take on the United States' Sha'Carri Richardson.
Fraser-Pryce competes in 60m, 100m and 200m. The 36-year-old is the most decorated 100m sprinter in history and is widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters of all time.
She has won the diamond league a record five times in her 100m specialty. She also boasts of five five gold medals in the World Championships and has shown no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
American Richardson, 23, clocked 10.76 seconds to set a new record in the Diamond League on May 5 in Doha, beating the previous meeting record of 10.80 set by her compatriot Tori Bowie, whose death at the age of 32 was announced on May 3.
Local favorite and African 100m record holder, Ferdinand Omanyala will bid to lower his record that was set at the same venue last year.
Olympic bronze medallist Yaroslava Mahuchikh from Ukraine will feature in the women's high jump, with two-time African 400m champion Isaac Makwala also added to the line-up.
On Friday, organizers announced that 204 international athletes will join 68 athletes from Kenya at the Challenge Tour event to give them a chance to qualify for the forthcoming World Championships in Budapest this summer.
