The 2023–24 Ligue 1, also known as Ligue 1 Uber Eats for sponsorship reasons, was the 86th season of the Ligue 1, France's premier football competition. Regular season will begin on 12 or 13 August 2023 and will conclude on 18 May 2024. The relegation play-offs will be played on 30 May and 2 June 2024.

Paris Saint-Germain were the two-time defending champions, and would mathematically secure a record-extending twelfth title with three matches to spare on 28 April 2024, following Monaco's 3–2 defeat against Lyon. It was also the club's tenth Ligue 1 title won in the last twelve seasons.

Teams

A total of eighteen teams are participating in the 2023–24 edition of the Ligue 1. In June 2021, the LFP voted overwhelmingly at its general assembly to contract Ligue 1 back to 18 clubs for the 2023–24 season by relegating four to, and promoting two from, Ligue 2 after 2022–23.

Changes

Le Havre (promoted after a fourteen-year absence) was promoted from the 2022–23 Ligue 2, replacing Auxerre, Ajaccio (Both relegated after one year in the top flight), Troyes (relegated after two years in the top flight) and Angers (relegated after eight years in the top flight) who were relegated to 2023–24 Ligue 2.
