The 1961 Interamerican Series (Spanish: Serie Interamericana) was a baseball tournament held from February 10 through February 15, 1961. It was the first tournament held under that name since 1949, after the 1961 Caribbean Series, originally scheduled to be held in Havana, was cancelled due to the Cuban Revolution.
Since the first Caribbean Series in 1949 (and the earlier Interamerican Series in 1946), this was the first major international club competition in the Americas not to feature a representative from the Cuban Winter League, which would fold later that year. It instead featured two representatives from Venezuela's two leagues, Central League (Industriales de Valencia) and Occidental League (Rapiños de Occidente). It also featured the champion teams from Panama (Cerveza Balboa) and Puerto Rico (Senadores de San Juan).
