The 2024 Kansallinen Liiga, also known as Subway Kansallinen Liiga for sponsorship reasons, is the 18th edition of the Finnish top-level women's football league.
KuPS are the defending champions, having won their third title, and third title in a row, in the 2023 season.[1]
The schedule for the 2024 season has been announced on 24 January 2024. The first match was played on 12 April 2024 and the last matches of the regular season are scheduled for 31 August 2024.[2] The championship round is scheduled to start on 14 September 2024 and the qualifying round one week later on 21 September 2024. The final matches should be played between 18 and 20 October 2024.[3]
The 2024 season is a transition one as the Finnish women's league framework is being restructured. Beginning with the 2025 season, Kansallinen Liiga is shrinking to 8 teams from the current 10, and the Ykkönen, to be known as Kansallinen Ykkösen, is expanding from 8 teams to 10. As a consequence, three teams will be directly relegated from the Kansallinen Liiga to the Ykkönen in the 2024 season. There will be no relegation play-off.[2][4]
