The 1899 VFL season was the third season of the Victorian Football League (VFL), the highest level senior Australian rules football competition in Victoria. The season featured eight clubs, ran from 13 May until 16 September, and comprised a 14-game home-and-away season followed by a finals series featuring all eight clubs. The premiership was won by the Fitzroy Football Club for the second time and second time consecutively, after it defeated South Melbourne by one point in the 1899 VFL Grand Final.
