# 2024 Grand Slam of Darts

The 2024 Grand Slam of Darts (known for sponsorship reasons as the 2024 Mr Vegas Grand Slam of Darts) was a professional darts tournament that was held at Aldersley Leisure Village in Wolverhampton, England from 9–17 November 2024. It was the eighteenth staging of the Grand Slam of Darts organised by the Professional Darts Corporation.
Luke Humphries was the defending champion, having defeated Rob Cross 16–8 in the 2023 final. He was eliminated in the group stage, after losing his first two matches. Michael van Gerwen was eliminated in the group stage for the first time since 2010, while 2022 champion Michael Smith was also unable to qualify from his group, meaning all former champions present at the tournament were eliminated before the knockout stage.
Luke Littler won the tournament, defeating Martin Lukeman 16–3 in the final for his first ranking major title.
