The 2024 DFB-Pokal final decided the winner of the 2023–24 DFB-Pokal, the 81st season of the annual German football cup competition. The match was played on 25 May 2024 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.[3][4]

The match featured 1. FC Kaiserslautern, a 2. Bundesliga side, and Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer Leverkusen won the match 1–0 for their second DFB-Pokal title. With the win, Leverkusen completed their first domestic double, and therefore will face Bundesliga runners-up VfB Stuttgart in the 2024 edition of the DFL-Supercup.

Furthermore, since Leverkusen already qualified for the Champions League through the Bundesliga, the seventh-place team in the Bundesliga, 1899 Hoffenheim, earned qualification for the group stage of the 2024–25 edition of the UEFA Europa League, and the league's third round spot of the 2024–25 edition of the UEFA Conference League went to the team in eighth, 1. FC Heidenheim.[5]

Teams were drawn against each other, and the winner after 90 minutes would advance. If still tied, 30 minutes of extra time was played. If the score was still level, a penalty shoot-out was used to determine the winner.[6]
