The 2024 Emperor's Cup is the 104th edition of the annually contested cup. It as usual features 88 teams representing the prefectural football associations, university football federation, J1 League, J2 League and Japan Football League.

Kawasaki Frontale are the defending champions, winning the previous tournament's final on penalty shoot-outs against Kashiwa Reysol.

On 19 September 2023, it was announced by JFA that Urawa Red Diamonds is banned from participating in this year's tournament following supporters clash after a 0–3 loss against Nagoya Grampus in the 4th round of the previous year's tournament. For this reason, instead of one, two specially-designated amateur clubs were designated by JFA, being them 2023 Japan Football League champions Honda FC and 2023 University Championship winners Meiji University. Both teams were given a bye from prefectural qualifications, as usual.
