The 1961–62 season is Real Madrid Club de Fútbol's 59th season in existence and the club's 30th consecutive season in the top flight of Spanish football.

The season saw Real Madrid win the domestic double and get agonizingly close to clinching its first ever treble (similarly to the 1957–58 season), only to be defeated by Benfica in an exhilarating European Cup final.
