The women's épée event at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place on 27 July 2024 at the Grand Palais strip.

Sun Yiwen was a defending 2020 Olympic champion, but she was lost to Miho Yoshimura.

This was the eighth appearance of the event, which has been held at every Summer Olympics since being introduced in 1996.

The 1996 tournament had vastly simplified the competition format into a single-elimination bracket, with a bronze medal match.

Standard épée rules regarding target area, striking, and priority were used.
