The 2020–21 Armenian Premier League season is the 29th since its establishment.
On 30 July, it was announced that FC Van had been giving a license to compete in the Armenian Premier League, with the season commencing on 14 August 2020.[1]
On 29 September, the season was suspended indefinitely due to the escalating 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.[2] On 13 October, the FFA announced that the season would resume on 17 October.[3]
On 3 November, Gandzasar Kapan announced that they were withdrawing from the League and Armenian Cup due to the ongoing financial constraints relating to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in Armenia and the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.[4] [5]
On 16 March, Lori walked off at the start of their match against Ararat Yerevan in protest of their Matchday 1 fixture being awarded to Urartu after Lori where unable to field a team due to COVID-19.[6] [7] Lori later submitted their resignation from the Premier League on 5 April.[8]
