# 2004 IAAF Golden League

The 2004 IAAF Golden League was a series of track and field meetings organised by the International Association of Athletics Federations.
Originally taking place in Oslo, Rome, Monaco, Zürich, Brussels and Berlin, the Bislett Games was temporarily moved from Oslo to Fana (Bergen) due to the redevelopment of the Bislett stadion. The athletes (in selected events) who won their event at all six meetings took a share of a $1 million jackpot.

## Jackpot winners

| Year | Winners | Event(s) |
| 2004 | Christian Olsson | triple jump |
| 2004 | Tonique Williams-Darling | 400 m |
