The 1960 season of the Peruvian Primera División, or the Peruvian Football Championship, the top category of Peruvian football (soccer), was played by 10 teams. The champions were Universitario and Mariscal Castilla was relegated.[1][2][3]

Competition format

All teams faced each other in a double round-robin format, playing home and away matches. The team that accumulated the highest number of points at the end of the season was automatically crowned champion, while the team with the fewest points was relegated to the Peruvian Segunda División.

Two points were awarded for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss.

The champions qualified for the 1961 Copa Libertadores, the first Copa Libertadores to have a Peruvian team participate.
