The 2024 Grand Slam was a two-part professional wrestling television special produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was the fourth annual Grand Slam event and took place on September 25, 2024, at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in the Queens borough of New York City. The two-part event was broadcast as special episodes of AEW's weekly television programs, Wednesday Night Dynamite and Saturday Night Collision. Dynamite aired live on TBS while Collision aired on tape delay on September 28 on TNT.
Thirteen matches were contested at the event, five of which aired live on Dynamite with the other eight taped for Collision. In the main event of the Dynamite broadcast, Jon Moxley defeated Darby Allin to become the number one contender for the AEW World Championship at WrestleDream. In the main event of Collision, Kazuchika Okada defeated Sammy Guevara in a Championship Eliminator match, barring Guevara from challenging Okada for the AEW Continental Championship for as long as Okada is champion. The Dynamite episode was also notable for the retirement of the FTW Championship and the AEW debut of MVP.
This year's event changed the format for Grand Slam as for the prior three events, the second part had aired as a special episode of Friday Night Rampage. It would subsequently be the final Grand Slam to air as a two-part television special and held at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in late September as the following year's event will be produced in February as a one-night pay-per-view in Australia called Grand Slam Australia.
