The 1997 IAAF Grand Prix was the thirteenth edition of the annual global series of one-day track and field competitions organized by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). The series consisted of three levels: IAAF Grand Prix, IAAF Grand Prix II, and finally IAAF Permit Meetings. There were seventeen Grand Prix meetings and ten Grand Prix II meetings, making a combined total of 27 meetings for the series from 20 February to 20 September.[1] An additional 12 IAAF Outdoor Permit Meetings were attached to the circuit.[2]

Performances on designated events on the circuit earned athletes points which qualified them for entry to the 1997 IAAF Grand Prix Final, held on 13 September in Fukuoka, Japan.[3] Danish-Kenyan runner Wilson Kipketer was the winner of the overall men's title with 114 points, while Germany's Astrid Kumbernuss topped the women's rankings with 99 points in the discus throw.[4]
