The 2022 Campeonato Pernambucano (officially the Pernambucano Betsson 2022 for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the 108th edition of the state championship of Pernambuco organized by FPF. The championship began on 22 January and ended on 30 April 2022.
In the first stage, Sete de Setembro had three points deducted for fielding the ineligible player Bililiu in the match Sete de Setembro v Náutico played on 1 February 2022 (2nd round).[2]
The finals were contested in two-legged home-and-away format between the defending champions Náutico and Retrô. Tied 1–1 on aggregate, Náutico won 4–2 on penalties, winning the tournament for the 24th time.[3] As champions, Náutico qualified for 2023 Copa do Brasil and 2023 Copa do Nordeste.
