The Jamaican world record holder in the 100 and 200 meters
will participate in the IAAF Diamond League meeting on July 22
at Queen Elizabeth Park in London.
"The London Anniversary Games will be one of my last races
before the Olympic Games in Rio," Bolt said in a statement.
"It will be good to return to the Olympic Stadium on the Friday
night and get more of the special atmosphere that the fans
always produce," the 29-year-old sprinter added.
"I always get great support in the UK and I expect the stadium
to be packed."
