PVL seasons

The 2024–25 Premier Volleyball League (PVL) season was the eighth season of the Premier Volleyball League. As the league began aligning its calendar with the FIVB calendar, this was the first season to take place in two different calendar years. The season began on November 9, 2024 and ended on November 30, 2025.

This season features the first edition of the PVL on Tour Conference, which is held to accommodate the Philippines' hosting of the 2025 FIVB Men's Volleyball World Championship. For the first time, the league sent its top teams to compete in the AVC Women's Volleyball Champions League after previous attempts fell through.

Draft

The 2025 Premier Volleyball League draft was held on June 8, 2025, at Novotel Manila Araneta City in Quezon City. The first pick was made by the Capital1 Solar Spikers.

PVL on Tour

After the All-Filipino Conference, the league held a "preseason" tournament to make way for the Philippines' hosting of the 2025 FIVB Men's Volleyball World Championship. That conference was the PVL on Tour, based on the league's out-of-town series of the same name, which began on June 22, 2025 and ended on August 17.[6] The tournament also doubled as a qualifier for the Invitational Conference.[7]
