The 2011–12 season was Villarreal Club de Fútbol's 89th season in existence and the club's 12th consecutive season in the top flight of Spanish football. It covered a period from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012.

Villarreal competed in La Liga and participated in the UEFA Champions League, entering in the play-off round due to their fourth-place finish in the 2010–11 La Liga.
