The 2024 FA Community Shield was the 102nd FA Community Shield, an annual association football match contested by the winners of the previous season's Premier League and FA Cup competitions. It was played at Wembley Stadium in London on 10 August 2024,[3] and featured the 2023–24 Premier League champions Manchester City and the 2023–24 FA Cup winners Manchester United, who had defeated City in the final.

Arsenal were the defending champions, but they did not qualify for this edition, having been knocked out of the FA Cup in the third round and having finished second in the league.

Manchester City beat Manchester United 7–6 on penalties after a 1–1 draw inside regulation time, winning their first Community Shield title since 2019, which they also won on penalties after a 1–1 draw. This was United's first Shield defeat since 2009, when they were beaten by Chelsea, also on penalties.
