The 2023–24 snooker season is an upcoming professional snooker season with tournaments played between 26 June 2023 and 6 May 2024.

Players

The World Snooker Tour in the 2023–24 season consists of a field of up to 130 professional players.[1] The top 64 players from the prize money rankings after the 2023 World Championship, and up to 36 players earning a two-year card the previous year automatically qualify for the season. Next, four places are allocated to the top four on the One Year Ranking List who have not already qualified for the Main Tour. Seven players from international championships, two players from the Q Tour, and three players from the CBSA China Tour are offered the tour cards. A further 8 places were available through the Q School (four Event 1 winners, and four Event 2 winners). The Asia-Oceania Q School would provide four more places to the finalists of the two events held this year.

New professional players

All players listed below received a tour card for two seasons.
