Allsvenskan (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈâlːˌsvɛnːskan]; lit.'All-Swedish', also known as Fotbollsallsvenskan [ˈfûːtbɔlsˌalːsvɛnskan], lit.'Football All-Swedish') is a Swedish professional league for men's association football clubs. It was founded in 1924 and is the top tier of the Swedish football league system, operating on a system of promotion and relegation with Superettan. Seasons run from late March or early April to the beginning of November, with the 16 clubs all meeting each other twice, resulting in a 30-match season, for a total of 240 matches league-wide.

Allsvenskan is ranked 23rd in the UEFA coefficients of leagues based on performances in European competitions over the last five years. Allsvenskan is currently ranked third highest of the leagues in Scandinavia after Norway and Denmark. The current champions are Malmö FF, who won the title in the 2024 season.

The three teams with most Swedish championships are Malmö FF (24), IFK Göteborg (18) and IFK Norrköping (13).

Including the 2024 season, Allsvenskan has been running for an unbroken streak of 100 seasons. Unlike other European football leagues, the Allsvenskan did not experience an interruption in play during World War II due to Swedish neutrality.
