The 2024 Big 12 Women's Basketball Tournament is a postseason women's basketball tournament for the Big 12 Conference. It was played from March 7-12, 2024, in Kansas City, Missouri at T-Mobile Center.[1][2] The winner will receive the conference's automatic bid to the 2024 NCAA Tournament. Due to a major conference realignment that significantly impacted the Big 12, this will be the first and only tournament with 14 teams participating. At the beginning of the 2023–24 season, BYU, Cincinnati, Houston, and UCF joined the conference. This will be the final appearance in the tournament for Texas and Oklahoma before they join the Southeastern Conference for the 2024–25 season. The conference will increase to have 16 schools in that season, as Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, and Utah will join the Big 12, respectively from the Pac-12 Conference. The tournament is sponsored by Phillips 66.

Seeds

All fourteen teams will participate in the tournament. It will be the first and only tournament with the 14-team bracket format as the Big 12 will expand to 16 teams in the 2024–25 season. The top ten teams will receive a first round bye and the top four teams will receive a double bye, automatically advancing them into the quarterfinals.

Teams will be seeded by record within the conference, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records.[3]
