Shakhtar Donetsk entered the season as the defending champions and the leading club in the last three seasons. Shakhtar were "dethroned" by Dynamo, which finished the season with no losses for the first time since the 2014–15 season.

The season started earlier than expected due to the sudden withdrawal of SC Dnipro-1, which forced the UPL to organize a mini-tournament of four teams for the extra spot in late July. The tournament included teams that were relegated to the second tier and those that lost promotion/relegation play-offs. Due to the withdrawal of SC Dnipro-1, Ukraine's spot for the club was forfeited at the 2024–25 continental competitions.

The season kicked off on 3 August 2024, with games in Rivne and Kryvyi Rih. With the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, the league's fixtures are being suspended or postponed due to anti-strike air sirens.
