The 2024 WCT New Year Curling in Miyota (Japanese: WCT ニューイヤーカーリング in 御代田 2024) was held from December 29 to January 1 at the Curling Hall Miyota in Miyota, Japan.[1] The total purse for the event was ¥ 2,000,000.[2] It was the second event on the World Curling Tour Japan for the 2023–24 curling season.

Philoseek Aomori, represented by skip Miori Nakamura, fourth Misaki Tanaka, second Haruka Kihara, lead Hiyori Ichinohe and alternate Yuuna Harada won the event, defeating the Fortius rink of Yuna Kotani, Kaho Onodera, Anna Ohmiya and Mina Kobayashi in the championship game. Both teams finished undefeated through the round robin with 4–0 records to qualify for the semifinals, with Tokyo's Yui Ozeki and Karuizawa's Miyu Ueno also reaching the knockout stage with 3–1 records each. Philoseek Aomori then beat Grandir Tokyo (Ozeki) 8–3 in the semifinals while Fortius downed SC Karuizawa Club (Ueno) 6–3. In the gold medal game, Fortius scored two in the third and a single in the fourth for a 3–1 lead at the half. In the second half, however, Philoseek Aomori mounted a comeback, scoring five consecutive points to win the match 6–3. It was the Nakamura rinks second tour final appearance as they also reached the final of the 2023 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic. Surprisingly, the two highest ranked teams going into the event, South Korea's Ha Seung-youn and the United States' Delaney Strouse missed the playoffs with 2–2 records each.
