The 2024 Kentucky Derby (officially, the 150th Running of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve) was the 150th running of the Kentucky Derby. It took place on May 4, 2024, at Churchill Downs, in Louisville, Kentucky. The race was open to 20 horses, who qualified through the 2024 Road to the Kentucky Derby.

Mystik Dan won in a threeway photo finish, at 18:1 odds. He and jockey Brian Hernandez Jr. held off late charges by Sierra Leone and Forever Young to reach the wire first by a nose. It was the first nose margin victory in this event since the 1996 Kentucky Derby won by Grindstone and the first threehorse photo finish in this race since the 1947 Kentucky Derby, which was won by Jet Pilot.

One day before the Kentucky Derby, Hernandez and trainer Kenny McPeek teamed up with Thorpedo Anna to win the Kentucky Oaks. McPeek became the first trainer since 1952 to win the Kentucky Oaks and the Kentucky Derby in the same year.
