The 2024 Tour de France Femmes (officially 2024 Tour de France Femmes Avec Zwift) was the third edition of the Tour de France Femmes. The race took place from 12 to 18 August 2024 and was the 22nd race in the 2024 UCI Women's World Tour calendar. The race was organised by the Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), which also organises the men's Tour de France.
The race was won by Polish rider Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon–SRAM), beating defending champion Demi Vollering (Team SD Worx–Protime) by just four seconds. As well as taking second place, Vollering took the super-combativity award for the most combative rider. Pauliena Rooijakkers (Fenix–Deceuninck) took third place overall after her strong performance on the final stage.
In the race's other classifications, Marianne Vos (Visma–Lease a Bike) won the green jersey of the points classification for the second time. Justine Ghekiere (AG Insurance–Soudal) took the polka-dot jersey as winner of the mountains classification. Puck Pieterse (Fenix–Deceuninck) took the white jersey as the winner of the young riders classification, which was awarded to the best-placed rider under the age of 23. Lidl–Trek won the team classification as the team with the lowest aggregate time among their three best-placed riders.
Overall, the race was praised by the public, media, teams and riders. Cycling Weekly noted that the "razor-thin" margin of victory demonstrated the "extraordinary level of competition in women's cycling and the depth of talent in the field", while Le Parisien considered that the race had "offered itself some guarantees for the future".
