The 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (Arabic: كأس الأمم الإفريقية للسيدات 2024, French: Coupe d'Afrique des nations féminine 2024), officially known as the 2024 TotalEnergies Women's Africa Cup of Nations for sponsorship purposes and as WAFCON 2024 for short, will be the 15th edition of the biennial African women's football tournament organized by the Confederation of African Football. It will be hosted by Morocco in consecutive editions, having hosted the previous edition two years before.[1]

South Africa are the defending champions.

Host selection

CAF retained Morocco as hosts on 10 August 2022,[2][1] thus becoming the first country to host back-to-back WAFCON editions.

Morocco qualified automatically as hosts, while the remaining spots will be determined by the qualification rounds, whose draw was conducted on 6 July 2023 at the Mohammed VI Complex in Rabat, Morocco and will commence in August.[3]
