The 2022 Eliteserien was the 78th season of top-tier football in Norway. This was the sixth season of Eliteserien after rebranding from Tippeligaen. Molde were crowned the champions at the end of the season, winning their 5th Norwegian league title.

The season started on 2 April 2022 and ended on 13 November 2022, not including play-off matches.[2][3]

Bodø/Glimt were the defending champions, having won the previous season. HamKam, Aalesund and Jerv joined as the promoted clubs from the 2021 Norwegian First Division. They replaced Brann, Stabæk and Mjøndalen who were relegated to the First Division.

Teams

Sixteen teams competed in the league in this season – the top thirteen teams from the previous season, and three teams promoted from the First Division. The promoted teams were HamKam (returning to the top flight after a thirteen season absence), Aalesund (returning to the top flight after a one season absence) and Jerv (first season in the top flight). They replaced Brann, Stabæk and Mjøndalen, ending their top flight spells of six, eight and three years respectively.
