The 2010 Tippeligaen season is the sixty-sixth season of top-tier football in Norway. The competition began on 14 March and ended on 7 November. Rosenborg was the defending champions, having secured their twenty-first league championship in 2009.
Haugesund and Hønefoss were promoted directly from the First Division at the end of the 2009 season. Kongsvinger defeated Sarpsborg by 5–4 on aggregate in the final matches of the play-off round between the 3rd-, 4th- and 5th-placed team in the First Division and the 14th-placed team in the Tippeligaen, giving them the sixteenth and final spot.
