The Campeonato Catarinense de Futebol de 2019 da Série A, known as the 2019 Campeonato Catarinense, was the 94th season of Santa Catarina's top-flight football league. The season began on 16 January and ended on 21 April.
Avaí won on penalties their 17th title after beating Chapecoense in the final.[1]
The defending champions were Figueirense but they were eliminated by Chapecoense in the semi-final.
Format
The tournament was contested between 10 teams, who first played in a double round-robin in which the bottom two teams were relegated to next year's Série B. The final stage was a single-legged bracket contested by the top four teams.[2] Only two places were available in the 2020 Copa do Brasil, while three places were available in the 2020 Série D.[3]
