On night one, Olympic champion and World Record holder Armand Duplantis vaulted 6.11 metres to win the men's pole vault title, which was a meeting record, as was the 69.96m winning throw of Matthew Denny in the men's discus.[2] Night two saw a further three meeting records set by Faith Kipyegon with 3:54.75 in the women's 1500 metres, Beatrice Chebet winning the women's 5000 metres in 14:09.82 and Leonardo Fabbri taking the men's shot put with an effort of 22.98 metres.[3]
Whilst Diamond League points were used to gain entry into the finals, they were not used to determine Diamond League champions. Regardless of points accumulated throughout the season, winners of the 2024 Memorial Van Damme were crowned 2024 Diamond League champions in their respective events.[4]
