It takes place in the Kuipke velodrome in Ghent's Citadelpark.

During the fifth day's racing, Isaac Gálvez of Spain rode into the barrier edging the outside of the track and died on his way to hospital.

The event includes the Memorial Patrick Sercu madison, named after the former race director at Ghent and holder of the world record for number of six-day victories, Patrick Sercu, who died in 2019.

A Danish team formed by Alex Rasmussen and his companion Michael Mørkøv won with a 3-point difference.

The previous year's winner, Iljo Keisse, ended second.
