West Ham’s Premier League fixtures: Full 2023-24 schedule and dates
By Kate Burlaga and Luke Bosher
West Ham will start their 2023-24 Premier League campaign against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
The London Stadium side host Chelsea in their first home fixture, which comes on the weekend of August 19.
Though West Ham struggled in parts during their domestic campaign, their memorable Europa Conference League run and title means they will play Europa League football next season despite finishing 14th in the Premier League.
That means many of their fixtures in the first half of the season will be rescheduled for Sundays, due to Europa League group-stage games happening on Thursdays.
West Ham end the season against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

When will the TV fixtures be confirmed?
Last summer, Sky Sports and BT Sport revealed their televised picks for the opening weekend when the fixtures were released.
They then confirmed in mid-July their TV picks up until the middle of September.
As a minimum, the Premier League aims to alert supporters of changes based on TV scheduling at least six weeks before the match is due to take place.
This year, there will be one significant change with BT Sport being rebranded as TNT Sports from July. As The Athletic reported in detail here, it has been stressed that the transition will be seamless and the only noticeable change will be in name.
US fans were able to watch or stream all 380 Premier League games in 2022-23 and will be able to do so again, with NBC’s current deal — including streaming service Peacock — running until 2028.
Key dates — 2023-24 Premier League season
The new Premier League season starts on the weekend of August 11-14, 2023.
The traditional Community Shield curtain-raiser will be between Manchester City and Arsenal, with confirmation of the fixture details still to be confirmed by the Football Association. The game is usually between the Premier League and FA Cup winners, but with City claiming both, the second final spot goes to the Premier League runners-up.
The season will conclude on Sunday, May 19, 2024, with all 10 final-day games kicking off at the same time.
A mid-season break will take place between January 13-20 and the Premier League has promised that no two rounds across Christmas and New Year will take place within 48 hours of each other.
The summer transfer window opened on June 14 and runs until 11pm on September 1.
What about the Europa League?
Following their Europa Conference League triumph, West Ham will play in the Europa League this season and will enter at the group stage, which runs from September 21 to December 14. The final set for Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on a date still to be confirmed by UEFA.
The group-stage draw will take place on September 1, 2023.
