The 2024 bet365 US Darts Masters was the sixth staging of the tournament by the Professional Darts Corporation and the third entry in the season's World Series of Darts. The tournament featured 16 players (eight top-ranking players and eight regional qualifiers) and was held at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City, United States on 31 May–1 June 2024.

Michael van Gerwen was the defending champion after defeating Jeff Smith 8–0 in the 2023 final.[1] However, he was beaten by Rob Cross 6–4 in the quarter-finals.

Cross won his first US Darts Masters and his fourth World Series title in all, beating Gerwyn Price 8–7 in final.[2]
