The 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries and caucuses will be a series of electoral contests to indicate non-binding preferences for the Libertarian Party (LP) presidential nominee in the 2024 presidential election. These differ from the Republican or Democratic presidential primaries and caucuses in that they do not appoint delegates to represent a candidate at the party's convention to select the party's presidential nominee. The party's nominee will be chosen directly by registered delegates at the 2024 Libertarian National Convention, which is scheduled to take place from May 24 to 26, 2024 in Washington, D.C.

Candidates

As of December 2023, at least 35 candidates have filed with the Federal Election Commission to run for the Libertarian Party nomination in 2024. In previous cycles, the majority of these candidates did not appear on any ballots, raise money, or otherwise attempt to formally run a campaign.

Declared candidates

This section includes declared candidates who have filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission with intent to run under the Libertarian Party and who meet one or more of the following criteria: a) meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines; b) have participated (or have been invited to participate) in at least two Libertarian Party-sponsored debates or c) have received non-trivial media coverage as a candidate in this election cycle.
