Image source, Getty ImagesThe 2023-24 Premier League season may have only just finished but there is only 10 weeks until the 2024-25 season is scheduled to start.
So what are the key dates that you need to know?
The 2024-25 Premier League campaign will get under way during the weekend of 17-18 August.
It will take place over 33 weekends, with four midweek rounds and one Bank Holiday matchweek.
To allow for a mid-August start, there will not be a 'winter break' this time around. However, to avoid Christmas and New Year fixture congestion, the league will give more rest time to sides over three of the festive match rounds, with no club playing within 60 hours of another match.
The final round of fixtures will be played on Sunday, 25 May 2025, with all games to kick off at the same time.
09:00 BST on Tuesday, 18 June.
We will have all the details here for your club as soon as the fixtures are released.

Image source, Getty ImagesChelsea have confirmed the signing of Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer.
The 26-year-old will join the Blues on a four-year-deal when he leaves Fulham at the end of his contract this month.
The former Manchester City academy product spent four seasons with the Cottagers, making 132 appearances in all competitions and scoring five goals.
Chelsea have been looking to bolster their centre-back options following the departure of 39-year-old Thiago Silva at the end of the season.
The west London side are also expected to sell academy graduate defender Trevoh Chalobah this summer as they look to comply with profit and sustainability rules.
Adarabioyo told the club website: "Chelsea is a huge club and this is a full-circle moment for me. I was born three miles away from Stamford Bridge and made my professional debut there.
"I'm very excited and looking forward to helping push the club in the direction we want to go."
Co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart added: "We are delighted to bring Tosin to Chelsea. Throughout his career, he has showcased his maturity and defensive qualities and has gained a wealth of experience in the Premier League in recent seasons.
"He is ready to make the step up to Chelsea and work alongside the talented players in our squad. We look forward to Tosin joining up with us for pre-season."
We asked for you for your thoughts on what Fulham's summer priority is.
Here is a selection of your responses:
Andy: One of the transfer priorities this year should be a top centre-forward. Every year we make the mistake of thinking what we have is enough, and hope we're lucky enough not have any injuries. Everyone else has as a squad with four proper strikers in it. We constantly try to scrap through with two.
Will: We need a Tosin replacement, he was a key player, and a new centre-back is needed. We are also now linked with Emile Smith Rowe and that would be a great transfer, perhaps to take over from Willian. Other than that, just get the manager a new contract and we need to back him all the way in the transfer window.
Simon: It's time to consolidate our position within the Premier League. Accordingly we need to strengthen our side by firstly ensuring we keep our manager and key players. Secondly, we need to replace those players leaving and attract some quality additions. Only then will we able to address our consistency, in particular our away form.
Kevin: We always seem to scrabbling about for new players at the end of the window. Would be good, for a change, to make an early statement signing and get a settled squad before game one.

Image source, Getty ImagesTottenham have announced they will release four senior players - Ryan Sessegnon, Eric Dier, Japhet Tanganga and Ivan Perisic – when their contracts expire at the end of the month.
Sessegnon has interest from Fulham over a free transfer and is targeting a move within the Premier League, as he looks to rebuild his career after a series of hamstring problems.
Bayern Munich have already decided to make Eric Dier’s loan move permanent after a successful six-month spell.
Milwall have made an offer to sign loanee Japhet Tanganga permanently, but the move has stalled amid rival interest.
Ivan Perisic, meanwhile, is tipped to return to his boyhood club Hajduk Split as he enters the twilight of his glorious career.
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham have confirmed that centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo will leave them when his contract ends later this month.
BBC Sport reported last week that the 26-year-old is set to join Chelsea on a free transfer.
Long-serving goalkeeper Marek Rodak, who made 93 appearances for Fulham and twice won promotion to the Premier League with the club, will also leave Craven Cottage at the end of June.
The club has also said it remains in contract talks with forwards Willian and Bobby Decordova-Reid.

Image source, Getty ImagesA BBC Sport fans' questionnaire invited Premier League season ticket holders to share their views on the price they pay to watch their team.
You can read about the results and how they were collated here.
Fulham fans have held up yellow cards around Craven Cottage this season. The club has the most expensive non-corporate season ticket in the league. At £3,000, those who sit in certain areas of the new Riverside Stand pay more than £150 per home league match.
With its west London location on the banks of the Thames, Fulham has become one of the most popular destinations for global fans looking to see Premier League football during a trip to the capital.
"It causes a friction between loyal fans, who will stick with the club through thick and thin, and one-off tourists who want to come to London to watch a Premier League football match," said Sammy James, who hosts the Fulhamish podcast.
"I do get that tourist revenue is attractive, but that risks then cutting off your long term source of regular fans who will come every single week."
Sarah Keig, from the Fulham Lillies supporters group, said: "There will be a time when Fulham may find themselves back in the Championship again, and where are the supporters going to be then? [What if] you've priced them out, built this beautiful new stand, but nobody can afford to come and watch the football there?"
Fulham do still have season tickets available for less than £500 in certain areas of Craven Cottage. Next season all season tickets, except those in the Riverside Stand, will go up in price by 4%.

Image source, Getty ImagesFulham will travel to Germany to play TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, 10 August.
The sides previously met at Craven Cottage last summer with the Whites winning 2-1.
Hoffenheim finished seventh in the Bundesliga and thrashed German giants Bayern Munich 4-2 on the final day of the season.
Image source, Getty ImagesWhen Ademola Lookman spurned the chance to equalise by spectacularly failing a panenka-style penalty with the last kick-off the game for Fulham against West Ham in November 2020 few would have predicted he would go on to become the first man to score a hat-trick in a Europa League or Uefa Cup final.
A product of the Charlton youth academy, Lookman was on loan from RB Leipzig at the time and had already had a spell at Everton. Another loan - this time to Leicester City - followed, showing the difficulty the London-born Nigeria international has endured trying to find a home at club level.
But find a home he now certainly has.
Before moving to Italy to sign for Atalanta in 2022, Lookman's best league goal scoring return was six at Leicester.
In his first season in Serie A, he scored 13 and registered eight assists. In his second he has scored nine and assisted six.
The third of his stunning hat-trick in the Europa League final win over previously unbeaten Bayer Leverkusen was his fifth European strike of the season.
Now 26 years old, Lookman has illustrated that struggling in the Premier League does not define a player's career and there are many routes to the top.
Now with an iconic performance in a European final to his name, in his words, it is "just the beginning".
