The 2003–04 Perth Glory SC season was the club's eighth season since its establishment in 1996, and its final season in the National Soccer League (NSL). Perth Glory finished top of the league and were crowned champions after defeating Parramatta Power in the 2004 NSL Grand Final.
A redevelopment of Perth Oval, known as Member's Equity Stadium at the time, forced the Glory to play two home matches at Arena Joondalup in the northern suburbs of Perth. The unavailability of Perth Oval in the opening rounds led the Glory to play the majority of the first half of the season playing away. From the opening of the renovated stadium in round 12, Perth Glory only played four matches away until round 26. For the preliminary final, Glory used Subiaco Oval, which had hosted three previous NSL grand finals.
