Musim 2003–2004 adalah musim ke-109 dalam sejarah [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal Football Club]]. Musim tersebut dimulai pada 1 Juli 2003 dan berakhir pada 30 Juni 2004, dengan pertandingan kompetitif dimainkan antara bulan Agustus dan Mei. Tim ini mengakhiri [[Liga Utama Inggris]] sebagai juara tanpa mengalami kekalahan – rekor 26 kemenangan dan 12 hasil imbang. Arsenal bernasib kurang baik dalam turnamen lainnya, tersingkir pada babak semi final [[Piala FA 2003–2004|Piala FA]] dan [[Piala Liga Inggris 2003–2004|Piala Liga]] dari [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] dan [[Middlesbrough F.C.|Middlesbrough]], dan pada babak perempat final di [[Liga Champions UEFA 2003–2004|Liga Champions UEFA]] dari [[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]].
Arsenal tidak banyak melakukan kegiatan dalam bursa transfer awal musim karena kebutuhan finansial yang tinggi akibat [[Stadion Emirates|proyek stadion baru]]. Tambahan pemain terpenting untuk tim utama adalah kiper [[Jens Lehmann]] seharga £1.5 juta; lalu penyerang [[José Antonio Reyes|Jose Antonio Reyes]] yang dibeli pada bursa transfer musim dingin. Arsenal mempertahankan pemain terbaik mereka dan berhasil melakukan negosiasi kontrak baru untuk kapten [[Patrick Vieira]] dan gelandang [[Robert Pirès|Robert Pires]]. Dengan skuat yang stabil membuat Arsenal sebagai salah satu unggulan untuk meraih gelar juara Liga Utama Inggris bersama dengan Manchester United, dan Chelsea yang diambil alih oleh miliarder asal Rusia [[Roman Abramovich]].
