2024 United States House of Representatives elections in Minnesota

The 2024 United States House of Representatives elections in Minnesota were held on November 5, 2024, to elect the eight U.S. representatives from the state of Minnesota, one from each of the state's congressional districts. The elections coincided with the U.S. presidential election, as well as other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. Primary elections were held on August 13, 2024.

U.S. Representative Dean Phillips was the sole incumbent not to be re-elected, opting instead to run for president against incumbent Joe Biden in 2023. Ahead of the general election, Democrats and Republicans each controlled four seats. After the results of the general election, Democrats and Republicans retained every one of their seats.
