The 2011–12 Superleague Greece was the 53rd season of the highest football league of Greece and the sixth under the name Superleague. The season began in late August or early September 2011 and ended in May 2012 with the last matches of the European playoff round.Olympiacos are the defending champions, having won their 38th Greek championship in the 2010–11 season.

The league comprised 13 teams from the 2010–11 season and three promoted teams from the 2010–11 Football League.

Larissa, Panserraikos, Iraklis, Olympiacos Volou and Kavala were relegated at the end of the 2010–11 season. Larissa and Panserraikos were relegated on virtue of their league position at the end of the season; Larissa had to return to the Football League, formerly known as Beta Ethniki, after six seasons, while Panserraikos were relegated after just one season. Olympiacos Volou and Kavala were initially relegated to the Delta Ethniki due to the on-going match-fixing scandal, but after an appeal, both teams demanded to have their cases rechecked. The Professional Sports Committee refused, however, and the original penalty stood. On 22 October 2011, almost two months after the league had started, they were replaced by Doxa Drama and Levadiakos.

Iraklis were denied a licence for the 2011–12 season over unpaid debts and put into last place of the league table. The club was thus demoted to the 2011–12 Football League, concluding a twenty-nine-year run in the highest football league of Greece. The demotion of Iraklis eventually spared Asteras Tripolis from relegation.
