The 2021 Memorial Van Damme was the 45th edition of the annual track and field meeting in Brussels, Belgium. Held on 3 September at the King Baudouin Stadium, it was the thirteenth and penultimate leg of the 2021 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit. The discus throw events were held on 1 September, two days before the rest of the meeting. Although Memorial Van Damme and Weltklasse Zürich co-hosted the finals during the last full season in 2019, in 2021 the series moved to a single final in Zürich.
Athletes competing in the Diamond League disciplines earned extra compensation and points which went towards qualifying for the Diamond League finals in Zürich. First place earned 8 points, with each step down in place earning one less point than the previous, until no points are awarded in 9th place or lower.
