Launceston will host North Launceston at Windsor Park on March 20, while Lauderdale play Clarence and Kingborough host North Hobart in Southern match-ups.
North Launceston will get their chance at flipping the grand final result in round six against Kingborough, while Launceston face Clarence, who ended their 2023 season, in round three.
There's plenty of excitement building up to the impending 2025 restructure of Tasmanian football - with several former AFL players signing on for this season.
Lauderdale secured the signatures of Andrew Phillips and Mitch Robinson, while Clarence landed three-time premiership Tiger Jack Riewoldt.
Riewoldt will lace up the boots for one game, with the date yet to be confirmed, but one that will be highly anticipated on the TSL's calendar.
"The announcement of the 2024 TSL fixture ramps up the excitement for the upcoming season which will be on us before we know it," AFL Tasmania's Tom Barwick said.
"We anticipate a competitive final TSL season with some hype building around some former AFL talent gracing the league, including a very exciting guest appearance from Richmond Great, Jack Riewoldt."
Barwick praised the work of Glenorchy, who after fielding just a senior side last year, are intent on putting together a development league outfit after a strong pre-season.
"We are excited that Glenorchy are tracking strongly off the back of a difficult 2023 and are intending to field both Development League and TSL teams in 2024.
"This is a credit to Josh Arnold and those involved at the Magpies that have worked hard and will continue to work hard on their rebuild."
Competition byes will be held between rounds 12 and 13 and 15 and 16 when the Tasmanian representative games take place.
Week one of finals will be from September 6-9, week two from September 13-15 and the grand final on September 21.
