The 2024 Offaly Senior B Hurling Championship is the seventh staging of the Offaly Senior B Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Offaly County Board in 2018. The group stage placings were confirmed on 20 February 2024.[1][2] The championship is scheduled to run from 19 July to 6 October 2024.
Kilcormac–Killoughey entered the championship as the defending champions.[3] They declined their automatic right to promotion due to the fact that their first team already participates in the Offaly SHC.[4]
