The 2024 Hong Kong Sevens or SVNS HKG was a rugby sevens tournament played at Hong Kong Stadium. Fifteen men's and women's teams participated. This was the last tournament at the iconic Hong Kong Stadium, as from 2025 the event will move to Kai Tak Sports Park.[1] In addition to the SVNS tournament, there was also an invitational pool for Asian teams called the Melrose Claymores.[2]

New Zealand won the men's event and their thirteenth title in Hong Kong, defeating France in the final. New Zealand also won the women's event, their twelfth title in Hong Kong, defeating the United States in the final.
