The 2024–25 Norwegian First Division season was the 35th season of second-tier professional ice hockey in Norway. The regular season ran from 20 September 2024 to 2 March 2025 with Nidaros Hockey finishing atop the standings. The postseason ran from 8 March to 28 March 2025. Nidaros Hockey defeated Ringerike Panthers 3 games to 1 for the league championship.
Membership changes Narvik IK was promoted to EliteHockey Ligaen and replaced by the Ringerike Panthers.
Hasle-Løren IL was set to be relegated to the Second Division. However, both Bergen IK and Furuset Ishockey were removed from the league due to financial difficulties. As a result, Hasle-Løren remained in the league while the open spots were filled by Manglerud Star Ishockey, who was already scheduled to join the league through promotion, and the Kongsvinger Knights, who had lost in the previous season's relegation round.
