The 2024 T20 Blast (also known as 2024 Vitality Blast for sponsorship reasons) was the 22nd edition of the T20 Blast (currently known as the Vitality Blast), a professional Twenty20 cricket league played in England and Wales. The tournament ran from 30 May to 14 September 2024. The domestic T20 competition was run by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and was branded as the Vitality Blast due to the tournament's sponsorship. Somerset were the defending champions, having won their second title during the previous season. On 23 November 2023, the ECB announced the fixtures for the tournament.
Somerset and Gloucestershire won their home quarter-finals, while Surrey and the Sussex Sharks also secured a place at Finals day with away wins against Durham and Lancashire Lightning respectively, thus producing an all South Group finals for only the second time; the last occurrence being in 2021. In the final, Gloucestershire beat Somerset by 8 wickets to win their first title after an 22-year wait.
