This paper deals with conformal vector fields of projectively flat \((\alpha, \beta)\)-Finsler spaces. The main result lies in Theorem 1.1, in which, it is proved that any conformal vector field is homothetic on a locally projectively flat \((\alpha, \beta)\)-space of non-Randers type in dimension \(n\geq3,\) and the local solutions of such a vector field are determined. In example 1.2, it is proved that the conformal vector fields are not necessarily homothetic for a locally projectively flat Randers space. In Corollary 4.1, it is shown that the result given in Theorem 1.1 remains the same for a locally projectively flat Randers metric of isotropic S-curvature. Further, in Corollary 4.3, the existence of local structure of conformal vector fields of a locally projectively flat \((\alpha, \beta)\)-metric with constant flag curvature is shown.
