The 2026 Allsvenskan is the 102nd season since its establishment in 1924 of Sweden's top-level men's football league, Allsvenskan. The season began on 5 April 2026 and will end in November 2026 (not including relegation play-off matches).
Mjällby AIF were the reigning champions, having won their first title in the previous season. However, they failed to defend their title. [1]
