La 24 Ore di Le Mans 2004 è stata la 72ª maratona automobilistica svoltasi sul Circuit de la Sarthe di Le Mans, in Francia, il 12 e il 13 giugno 2004. Hanno gareggiato assieme 4 classi di automobili da competizione, ognuna delle quali ha avuto il suo vincitore. Le vetture più veloci, appartenenti alle classi LM-P1 e LM-P2, erano sportprototipi di categoria Le Mans Prototype appositamente progettati e costruiti per le gare, mentre le più lente classi GTS e GT comprendevano vetture derivate da automobili GT stradali.

Con la fine della partecipazione della Bentley, non ci furono team ufficiali in questa edizione della 24 ore, lasciandola teoricamente aperta a chiunque. Comunque, le Audi R8 diedero prova della loro efficacia anche in mano a team privati, realizzando una tripletta.

Ancora una volta, Tom Kristensen fu nella macchina vincitrice, più precisamente l'Audi del team giapponese Goh, realizzando il record di 5 vittorie di fila (dal 2000 al 2004 a cui aggiunge quella del 1997), appaiando Jacky Ickx con 6 vittorie totali.
