Heavy rains brought the afternoon session at the World Athletics Under-20 Championships to a halt on August 19, 2021, at the Moi Sports Centre Kasarani in Nairobi, Kenya.
Organizers suspended activity on the field as the initial light showers intensified into a heavy downpour, making it difficult for competition to continue.
The final events affected by the suspension included the women's javelin, men's pole vault, and heats of the men's 1500m.
