24 Hrs is the fifth studio album by English recording artist Olly Murs, released through Epic Records on 11 November 2016. The album has produced the Silver-certified "You Don't Know Love" and UK top-forty single "Grow Up". Commercially, the album debuted atop the UK Albums Chart giving Murs' his fourth UK number-one album.

In September 2016 Olly Murs announced he would embark on a UK Tour, called the Spring & Summer Tour 2017.

The lead single from the album, "You Don't Know Love", peaked at number 15 on the UK Singles Chart. The second single, "Grow Up" was released on 7 October 2016 and it peaked at number 25 in the UK Singles Chart.

On 18 November 2016, after the news of the album going to number 1, Murs did a Facebook Live stream and announced that "Years & Years" would be a new single off the album.

The fourth single will be "Unpredictable", which will be updated to feature fellow The X Factor contestant (and winner) Louisa Johnson. The release date of the new version is out on the 31 May 2017.

"Back Around" was made available before the album's release as an instant grat on 4 November 2016.

Neil Z. Yeung of AllMusic gave the album three and a half stars in his review, writing "24 Hrs continues Olly Murs maturation, shedding some of his former pop/rock sound in favor of tighter dance-pop sheen and deeper lyrical content. The singer's fifth effort sounds slick indeed, serving up shimmering pop that connects the dots between contemporaries like the 1975, Years & Years, and DNCE. Save for the guitar-based 'Grow Up,' 24 Hrs' its primary objective is to inspire movement. The result is a highly enjoyable LP, upbeat and fun, despite the fact that much of the lyrical content revolves around a rough breakup. [...] Ultimately, 24 Hrs is comforting and reassuring in its ability to lift the spirits, healing broken hearts through dance therapy."
