The 2024 Eliteserien is the 80th season of top-tier football in Norway. This is the eighth season of Eliteserien after rebranding from Tippeligaen.

The season started on 31 March 2024 and ended on 1 December 2024, not including play-off matches.[1]

Bodø/Glimt are the defending champions. Fredrikstad, KFUM Oslo and Kristiansund joined as the promoted clubs from the 2023 Norwegian First Division. They replaced Vålerenga, Stabæk and Aalesund, who were relegated to the 2024 Norwegian First Division.
