The 2024 VFL Women's season was the eighth season of the VFL Women's (VFLW), the state level senior women's Australian rules football competition in Victoria. The season ran from 22 March to 21 July, comprising a home-and-away season, followed by a finals series featuring the top six clubs.

The season was contested by 12 clubs. It also included matches against New South Wales AFL Women's teams Template:AFLW GWS and Sydney; the New South Wales teams were not premiership eligible, but there were premiership points available for the Victorian clubs in the matches.[1]

Prior to the start of the season, there was speculation that Template:AFLW Col would affiliate with Williamstown for the 2024 VFLW season "as part of broader reviews from the AFL and the club into the direction of the VFLW". However, no affiliation agreement resulted from the reviews.[2]

North Melbourne defeated Western Bulldogs in the Grand Final played at ETU Stadium, scoring a record high score of 10.8 (68) points against the Bulldogs 7.6 (48) to claim the club's first VFL Women's premiership.
