The 2004 Anaheim Angels season was the 44th season of the Los Angeles Angels franchise in the American League, the 39th in Anaheim, and their 39th season playing their home games at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. The Angels won their fourth American League West title, their first since 1986. Their playoff run was short, as they were quickly swept by the eventual World Series champion Boston Red Sox in the American League Division Series.

The season was notable for being the last season the Angels played under the "Anaheim Angels" moniker; owner Arte Moreno changed the team name to the controversial "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" moniker the following season. It was also notable as the season in which newly signed outfielder Vladimir Guerrero won the AL Most Valuable Player award, the first time an Angels player had been so honored since Don Baylor in 1979.
