The 2024 British Open (officially the 2024 Unibet British Open) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 23 to 29 September 2024 at the Centaur in Cheltenham, England.

The fifth ranking tournament of the 2024–25 season, it followed the 2024 English Open and preceded the 2024 Wuhan Open. It was organised by the World Snooker Tour and sponsored by online gambling platform Unibet. The winner received £100,000 from a total prize fund of £502,000 and the Clive Everton Trophy. Everton died on 27 September, two days before the tournament concluded.
The defending champion was Mark Williams, who defeated Mark Selby 10–7 in the 2023 final, but he lost 1–4 to Rory Thor in qualifying (round 1).

The event produced 55 century breaks, 12 in qualifying and 43 in the main stage; the highest was a maximum break by Mark Allen in his third‑round match against Ben Mertens.

Higgins whitewashed Lines. After the match Higgins said: "I have not won silverware for a few years and I just love the feeling of being the last man standing, that's why I keep going. I am going to have a monumental game tomorrow, they are both immovable objects who are so tough to compete against. I hope it goes 6–5 tonight either way." Lines said: "Nerves got the better of me. I wanted to at least show why I made the semi‑final. Even the easiest pots were looking so hard. I have played well all week and I hoped I could find something today, but mentally I didn't give myself a chance, I didn't handle it."
In the evening session Mark Selby played Mark Allen. In the first frame of the match, after more than 30 minutes of safety play, the players asked referee Kevin Dabrowski for a re‑rack and started the match again. At the mid‑session interval, after more than two hours of playing time, Selby led Allen 3–1. Selby went on to win the match 6–3, with both players making century breaks. After the match Selby said: "John and I will be battling out there tomorrow, giving it everything. I have so much time for him, every time I see him we have a laugh and get on well." Allen said: "One or two shots could have made a difference. I feel my game is in good enough shape and I'm looking forward to the next tournament."
Final
The final was played on 29 September as the best of 19 frames, played over two sessions and officiated by Ben Williams. Mark Selby played John Higgins in Selby's 35th ranking final, and Higgins' 56th. At the end of the afternoon session Selby led Higgins 5–3. Selby went on to win 10–5, capturing his first British Open title and the 23rd ranking title of his career. It was Selby's first ranking title since the 2023 WST Classic in March 2023. Afterwards, Selby said: "The first session was incredible, I think my pot success was 98% and John's was 96%. Tonight wasn't quite as good, I missed one red at 7–4 but apart from that I made very few mistakes and I took my chances when I had them." Higgins said "Mark put on a clinic tonight, he was too good for me. My big moment was the tenth frame when I had a chance to make it 5–5 but couldn't take it."
