With the 2024 Mr. Olympia contest approaching, bodybuilders from around the world are attempting to earn a coveted qualification for the prestigious show. The 2024 Mr. Olympia competition is set to return to Las Vegas, Nevada for its 60th anniversary and will take place from October 10-13.
Per the Olympia Qualification System, there is no point system in effect.
