# 2020–21 FC Bayern Munich season

The 2020–21 season was the 122nd season in the existence of FC Bayern Munich and the club's 56th consecutive season in the top flight of German football. In addition to the domestic league, Bayern Munich participated in this season's editions of the DFB-Pokal, the DFL-Supercup, the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup. The season covered the period from 24 August 2020 to 30 June 2021.
Adding on to the three titles that made up their continental treble in the previous season, Bayern's victories in this campaign's DFL-Supercup, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup ensured that the club had won all six competitions they took part in across the 2020 calendar year, thus joining Barcelona in 2009 as the only other side to accomplish this "sextuple" in the history of European football.
