The 2024 Argentine Women's Primera División A is the 6th season of top-flight semi-professional women's football in Argentina and the 34th season overall. The league season began on 9 March and it will end on 15 December 2024.[1]

Eighteen teams will compete in the league: sixteen returning from the 2023 season as well as two promoted teams from the 2023 Primera División B (Newell's Old Boys and San Luis FC), both teams will be participating in Primera División A for the first time in history from this season.[2][3] Boca Juniors are the defending champions.

Competition format[edit]

The season is divided in two separate championships, called Apertura and Clausura. Both tournaments rea run under a single round-robin, contested by 18 teams (16 from the previous edition plus 2 promoted from Primera División B). If each tournament is won by a different team, they will play a single-legged qualifier for the 2025 Copa Libertadores Femenina.[1]

In this season the bottom four teams of an aggregate table of the Apertura and Clausura tournaments will be relegated to the Primera División B.
