Tidsprogram med svenska deltagare Nedanstående sammanställning redovisar det av Europeiska Friidrottsförbundet fastställda slutliga tidsprogrammet. Observera dock att ändringar i det s k definitiva tidsprogrammet erfarenhetsmässigt görs ända in i det sista. Oftast är ändringarna marginella, dvs det kan handla om flyttningar 5-10-15 minuter i någon riktning för vissa grenar. Naturligtvis är det svenska deltagandet i semifinaler och finaler inte givet på förhand utan beroende av utfallet av närmast föregående tävlingsrond. Endast i mångkamp och 4x400m är det final direkt.
