The 2024 Arena Football League season was the first season in the new version of the Arena Football League (AFL), and the 33rd season of play in the history of the Arena Football League brand.
The 2024 season began April 27 with six games. The league was overshadowed by numerous problems and controversies (Especially during the first few weeks of the season.) Among them include the closures of multiple franchises, numerous cancellations of games, and the abrupt departure of the Philadelphia Soul players and staff, and the lack of payments handed out to most teams, resulting in questions about the league's future. The original commissioner of the league, Lee Hutton, was ultimately removed from his post following week 3 and was replaced with Nashville Kats president Jeff Fisher as interim commissioner in a unanimous vote among the remaining team owners. Eight of the 16 teams that started the 2024 season survived to the end of the regular season, with the Billings Outlaws winning ArenaBowl XXXIII over the de facto defending champion Albany Firebirds on July 19; the 8 surviving teams formed Arena Football One.
