The 2024 FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Great Britain was the seventh round of the 2024 Speedway Grand Prix season (the World Championship of speedway). It took place on 17 August at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.[1][2] It was the 28th Speedway Grand Prix of Great Britain.

The event was won by Dan Bewley (his fourth career Grand Prix win), who also won the sprint race held the day before.[3][4]

The event was unusual in that nine riders finished on 9 points or above after the 20 heats, which resulted in Maciej Janowski missing out on the semi finals by virtue of world ranking.[5]
