The 2024 Weltklasse Zürich was the 63rd edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting held in Zürich. Held on 5 September at Letzigrund, it was the twelfth leg of the 2024 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit.

Notable performances

The meeting was highlighted by a world record attempt in the women's 5000 metres by Beatrice Chebet, and an "Olympic rematch" in the men's 1500 metres between Cole Hocker, Josh Kerr, Yared Nuguse, and Jakob Ingebrigtsen. However, poor weather conditions and suboptimal pacemaking led to Chebet's world record attempt falling short, though she still won in a world lead and meeting record of 14:09.52, which came within 10 seconds of Gudaf Tsegay's world record of 14:00.21. Meanwhile, Nuguse won the 1500 m over Ingebrigtsen, Hocker, and Kerr in a time of 3:29.21.^{[1] [2] [3]}

Results

Athletes competing in the Diamond League disciplines earned extra compensation and points which went towards qualifying for the 2024 Diamond League finals. First place earned 8 points, with each step down in place earning one less point than the previous, until no points are awarded in 9th place or lower. In the case of a tie, each tying athlete earns the full amount of points for the place.^{[4] [5]}
