The 2010–11 Slovenian PrvaLiga was the 20th season of top-tier football in Slovenia. The season began in July 2010 and ended on 29 May 2011. Koper were the defending champions, having won their first the previous season.

Teams

Drava were directly relegated at the end of the 2009–10 season to Slovenian Second League after the last-place finish, having narrowly avoided relegation in the relegation play-offs in the 2007–08 and 2008–09 seasons. Interblock, who placed ninth in 2009–10, entered relegation play-offs and were beaten by Triglav, the runners-up of the 2009–10 Slovenian Second League.

Along with Triglav, Primorje were promoted back to top flight as champions of the Slovenian Second League, having been relegated at the end of the 2008–09 season.
