The women's team épée event at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place the 30st of July at the Grand Palais strip. ^[1] 24 fencers (eight teams of three) from eight nations are expected to compete. ^[2]

Background

This was the 6th appearance of the event, which has been held at every Summer Olympics since 1996 except 2008 (during the time when team events were rotated off the schedule, with only two of the three weapons for each of the men's and women's categories).

Estonia were defending champions, but they not qualify.

Qualification
