The league have confirmed the season will begin on August 17 2024 and run until May 25 2025.
In a statement, the Premier League revealed: “The Premier League 2024/25 season dates have been confirmed with the season starting on 17 August 2024.
“The final match round of the campaign will be played on 25 May 2025, when all games will kick off simultaneously as usual.
“In keeping with previous commitments made to clubs to address the congested schedule across Christmas and New Year, arrangements will be made to allow more rest time over three of the festive match rounds, with no club playing within 60 hours of another match.”
The 2024/25 season will begin six days later than the current campaign, which started on August 11 this year.
It will also conclude the same amount of time later with all matches on the final day kicking off simultaneously.
That is in part down to Euro 2024, which will take place in Germany between June 14 and July 14 next year.
England will be one of 24 nations competing at the finals after qualifying in October.
