The 2020 NEAFL season was to have been the tenth season of the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL). The season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the NEAFL was amalgamated with the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]

The season was scheduled to begin on 4 April and conclude with the grand final on 21 September. As a result of a new naming rights agreement with Toyota, the season was to be known as the 2020 Toyota NEAFL Premiership Season.[2]

Additionally, the NEAFL's top-six structure for the finals series was set to be changed to a top-five structure for the 2020 season.[3]
