The 2023–24 Liverpool F.C. Women season is the club's 35th season of competitive football and second consecutive season back in the Women's Super League, the highest level of the football pyramid. Along with competing in the WSL, the club also contested two domestic cup competitions: the FA Cup and the League Cup.

On 3 May 2024, Liverpool confirmed that this season would be their last playing at Prenton Park, with the team playing their home games at the Totally Wicked Stadium from the 2024–25 season onwards.[1]
