The 2018–19 Sri Lanka Champions League, known as the 2018–19 Dialog Champions League due to sponsorship reasons, was the 34th season of the Sri Lanka Champions League, the top-tier football league in Sri Lanka. The season started on 21 October 2018, rather than the original scheduled date of June, due to the 2018 SAFF Championship,[1][2] and ended on 24 February 2019.[3]
