how to concatenate multiple excel sheets from the same file?

I have a big excel file that contains many different sheets. All the sheets have the same structure like:

Name
col1  col2  col3  col4
1     1     2     4
4     3     2     1

Thanks!

Try this:

dfs = pd.read_excel(filename, sheet_name=None, skiprows=1)

this will return you a dictionary of DFs, which you can easily concatenate using pd.concat(dfs) or as @jezrael has already posted in his answer:

df = pd.concat(pd.read_excel(filename, sheet_name=None, skiprows=1))

sheet_name: None -> All sheets as a dictionary of DataFrames

UPDATE:

Is there a way to create a variable in the resulting dataframe that identifies the sheet name from which the data comes from?

dfs = pd.read_excel(filename, sheet_name=None, skiprows=1)

assuming we've got the following dict:

In [76]: dfs
Out[76]:
{'d1':    col1  col2  col3  col4
 0     1     1     2     4
 1     4     3     2     1, 'd2':    col1  col2  col3  col4
 0     3     3     4     6
 1     6     5     4     3}

Now we can add a new column:

In [77]: pd.concat([df.assign(name=n) for n,df in dfs.items()])
Out[77]:
   col1  col2  col3  col4 name
0     1     1     2     4   d1
1     4     3     2     1   d1
0     3     3     4     6   d2
1     6     5     4     3   d2

file_save_location='myfolder'                                
file_name='filename'

location = ''myfolder1'
os.chdir(location)
files_xls = glob.glob("*.xls*")
excel_names=[f for f in files_xls]
sheets = pd.ExcelFile(files_xls[0]).sheet_names
def combine_excel_to_dfs(excel_names, sheet_name):
    sheet_frames = [pd.read_excel(x, sheet_name=sheet_name) for x in excel_names]
    combined_df = pd.concat(sheet_frames).reset_index(drop=True)
    return combined_df

i = 0

while i < len(sheets):
    process = sheets[i]
    consolidated_file= combine_excel_to_dfs(excel_names, process)
    consolidated_file.to_csv(file_save_location+file_name+'.csv')
    i = i+1
else:
    "we done on consolidation part"

Taking a note from this question:

import pandas as pd

file = pd.ExcelFile('file.xlsx')

names = file.sheet_names  # see all sheet names

df = pd.concat([file.parse(name) for name in names])

Results:

df
Out[6]: 
   A  B
0  1  3
1  2  4
0  5  6
1  7  8

Then you can run df.reset_index(), to, well, reset the index.

Edit: pandas.ExcelFile.parse is, according to the pandas docs:

Equivalent to read_excel(ExcelFile, ...) See the read_excel docstring for more info on accepted parameters

First add parameter sheetname=None for dict of DataFrames and skiprows=1 for omit first row and then use concat for MultiIndex DataFrame.

Last use reset_index for column from first level:

df = pd.concat(pd.read_excel('multiple_sheets.xlsx', sheetname=None, skiprows=1))
df = df.reset_index(level=1, drop=True).rename_axis('filenames').reset_index()
