Ipswich started off the next month with a Carabao Cup round-of-16 fixture on 1 November against Premier League side Fulham.

= December =
Ipswich started December strongly, gaining the maximum nine points from their first three games – a 2–1 home win over Coventry, a 2–0 away victory at Middlesbrough and a 2–1 away victory over Watford.{{Cite web |last=EFL |title=Homepage |url=https://efl.com/ |access-date=2024-01-23 |website=EFL |language=en}} The first East Anglian derby in five years against Norwich City ended 2–2 at Portman Road on 16 December 2023. A downturn in form followed as a result of an ensuing injury crisis, with a 4–0 loss at Elland Road to Leeds United, before a 1–1 home draw against Leicester on Boxing Day and a 0–0 home draw against Queen's Park Rangers.
= January =
The first game of the year away against Stoke City ended in a goalless draw. Ipswich, however, found a win in the third round FA Cup against AFC Wimbledon, winning 3–1. Ipswich's form appeared to begin to improve, with a 2–1 home win against Sunderland on 13 January 2024, and a massive 1–1 draw at the King Power Stadium on 22 January to help maintain second place. They then suffered a shock defeat in the fourth round of the FA Cup, losing 2–1 at home to Maidstone United of the sixth tier of English football.
= February =
Ipswich's stuttering form in the Championship continued until early February, with a 3–2 away loss against Preston and a 2–2 draw at home to West Brom, dropping to 4th in the table. However, this was put into a stop with four successive victories; with away wins against Millwall and Swansea with scorelines of 0–4 and 1–2 respectively and home wins against Rotherham and Birmingham on scorelines of 4–3 and 3–1 respectively, climbing back to 3rd place.
= March =
The campaign in March was excellent, securing a 0–2 away win vs Plymouth and a 3–2 home win over Bristol City.
However, Ipswich lost to Cardiff City 2–1 with 2 stoppage time goals pushing them to a defeat. Ipswich then grabbed their biggest home win and biggest win of the season with a 6–0 win over Sheffield Wednesday, being just 1 point off of Leeds and Leicester for top spot heading into in the international break. On March 30, Ipswich secured a 0–1 away win against Blackburn, ending the month on top of the Championship after Leeds drew and Leicester lost their last match of the month respectively.
= April =
Kieran McKenna’s side started the month strongly with a 3-2 home win over fellow promotion hopefuls Southampton. This followed with a 1-0 reverse at home in the East Anglian Derby against Norwich City before a run of draws. Ipswich were held by Watford 0-0 and then Middlesbrough 1-1 at home. On the 14th April Kieran McKenna was awarded the Sky Bet Championship Manager of the Season. {{Cite news |title=Kieran McKenna Wins the Sky Bet Manager of the Season |language=en-GB |work=EFL |url=https://www.efl.com/news/2024/april/14/kieran-mckenna-wins-the-sky-bet-championship-manager-of-the-season/|access-date=2024-05-02}} Ipswich then drew with Hull City 3-3 on the road where George Hirst made his return to the starting 11 from injury with the first goal of the game. The month ended with a 2-1 away win at Coventry City leaving Ipswich needing only a point from their final game of the season to secure back to back promotions and a return to Premier League Football.
=May=
The month sparked jubilation in the town of Ipswich as Ipswich Town secured Promotion to the Premier League after a 2-0 home win over Huddersfield Town. This made Ipswich Town the first team to secure back-to-back promotions from League One to the Championship and to the Premier League since Southampton in 2012, the fifth team to earn this honor, and it also ended their 22-year-long wait to the Premier League. The club ended their season in 2nd place with 96 points, one point below Championship winners Leicester City, and set a record for the most points by a team in an English second tier campaign that didn't win the title.{{Cite web |last=Mitton |first=Alex |date=2024-05-18 |title=5 football clubs who achieved back-to-back promotions after Ipswich Town's rise |url=https://www.givemesport.com/football-soccer-clubs-who-achieved-back-to-back-promotions/ |access-date=2024-06-09 |website=GiveMeSport |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=FC |first=Ipswich Town |date=2024-06-05 |title=2023/24 STATS |url=https://www.itfc.co.uk/news/2024/june/05/2023-24-in-stats/ |access-date=2024-06-09 |website=Ipswich Town FC |language=en}}
