The 2024 World Athletics Cross Country Championships was held in Belgrade, Serbia, on 30 March 2024. It was held in the Park of Friendship, next to the Danube, which was also the site of the 2013 European Championships.

Originally it was planned to be held in Medulin and Pula, Croatia, on 10 and 11 February 2024. However, due to lack of preparations, on the 15th of September 2023 it was announced by World Athletics that the event is to be moved to an undisclosed new venue. On 27 September 2023, World Athletics awarded Belgrade, Serbia the hosting duties. Belgrade was picked due to establishing itself as a reliable host of world class competitions, successfully hosting the 1962 European Championships, the 2013 European Cross Country Championships, the 2017 European Athletics Indoor Championships, the 2017 Balkan Championships and the 2022 World Athletics Indoor Championships.
