The 2024–25 Aston Villa W.F.C. season is the club's 29th season under their Aston Villa affiliation, the organisation's 51st overall season in existence, and their fifth season in the Women's Super League, the highest level of the football pyramid. Along with competing in the WSL, the club will also contest two domestic cup competitions: the FA Cup and the League Cup.

Following Carla Ward's departure at the end of the previous season,[1] Aston Villa appointed Robert de Pauw as their new manager on 29 June 2024.[2] He had most recently been manager of Bayer Leverkusen before agreeing to mutually part ways in May 2024.[3]

On 19 July 2024, the club announced that all of their league home matches would be played at Villa Park this season. Bescot Stadium will continue to host their cup matches.[4]
