Modern pentathlon at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Qualification

This article details the qualifying phase for modern pentathlon at the 2024 Summer Olympics. Thirty-six athletes for each gender must qualify for the Games, with only a maximum of two each per NOC. Qualification methods are similarly applied to both men's and women's events.[2][3][4]

Host nation France has been guaranteed one quota place automatically, while two invitational positions are distributed by the UIPM once the rest of the qualifiers are announced and thereby decided.[1][5]

One place will be awarded to the winner of the 2023 UIPM World Cup final. Twenty places are determined by the continental championships: one each from Africa and Oceania, five from Asia, eight from Europe, and five from the Americas with a maximum of one quota per NOC (two winners each from NORCECA and South America, and the highest-ranked from the 2023 Pan American Games).[1][5]

Three places have been reserved for the highest-ranked modern pentathletes at the 2023 and 2024 UIPM World Championships, respectively. The remaining six will be awarded based on the UIPM World Rankings of June 17, 2024, unless a reallocation of unused berths has been invoked before the deadline.[1][5]
