The Seiko Golden Grand Prix, formerly known as the Golden Grand Prix Kawasaki, is a track and field competition at the International Stadium Yokohama, Japan as part of the World Athletics Continental Tour. It was first organized in 2011 at the Todoroki Athletics Stadium in Kawasaki and sponsored by Seiko. It replaced the Osaka Grand Prix as the major athletics meet in Japan.
In 2013 the Seiko Golden Grand Prix Japanese leg of IAAF World Challenge moved from Kawasaki to Japan National Stadium in Tokyo. Meanwhile the 2018 edition moved back to Yanmar Stadium Nagai in Osaka. From 2020 until 2022 the meeting again was held in Tokyo before it moved to Yokohama in 2023.
