The 2023–24 Liga 1 (also known as the 2023–24 BRI Liga 1 for sponsorship reasons) was the 7th season of Liga 1 under its current name and the 14th season of the association football, the top Indonesian football league since its establishment in 2008. The season started on 1 July 2023 and ended on 31 May 2024.
PSM Makassar were the reigning champions after outpacing their closest rivals, Persija Jakarta and Persib Bandung in the 2022–23 Liga 1 season.
Overview No teams were relegated last season due to the impact of the Kanjuruhan Stadium disaster which lead to the cancellation of 2022–23 Liga 2. Therefore, the 18 teams competing in the league remained the same as the preceding season.
Following the decision from the AFC Competitions Committee to increase the foreign players quota for AFC club competitions from the existing 3+1 quota to 5+1 (five players of any nationality and one from an AFC member association) that will take effect from the 2023–24 season onwards, PSSI increased the number of foreign players in Liga 1 clubs from four per team (with one of them coming from a member association of the AFC) to six per team with one of them coming from an ASEAN country.
