The 2024 Speedway Grand Prix season is the 30th season of the Speedway Grand Prix era, and will decide the 79th FIM Speedway World Championship.[1] It is the third series promoted by Discovery Sports Events. A new sprint race was introduced at selected Grand Prix during the qualifying session, with the fastest rider in each qualifying session progressing to a single race for extra points. The idea behind the sprint race was similar to that brought into the Formula One, whereby the qualifying sessions were given more importance.[2]

Bartosz Zmarzlik is the defending champion, having won the previous two titles.
