The 2023 BAUHAUS-galan was the 57th edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting in Stockholm, Sweden. Held on 2 July 2023 at Stockholm Olympic Stadium, it was the seventh leg of the 2023 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit.

The meeting was marred by heavy rain, causing parts of the competition to be delayed. During the 400 metres hurdles, climate movement protestors got onto the track and extended banners blocking lanes one through six, preventing all but the leader Karsten Warholm from finishing unimpeded. The protestors were part of the A22 Network group.[1][2][3][4]

Mondo Duplantis attempted to break his own world record in the pole vault several times, extending the competition hours after the meeting was originally scheduled to end.[5]
