The 2011 Cape Verdean Football Championship season was the 32nd of the competition of the first-tier football in Cape Verde. Its started on 14 May and finished on 9 July, later than last year. The tournament was organized by the Cape Verdean Football Federation.[1] CS Mindelense won the 2011 title.

Boavista was the defending team of the title. A total of 11 clubs participated in the competition, one from each island league and one who won the last season's title.
