The 1989 VFA season was the 108th season of the Victorian Football Association (VFA), an Australian rules football competition played in the state of Victoria. It was the first season since 1960 in which the VFA operated as a single-division competition, having operated as a two-division competition with promotion and relegation for the previous 28 years.
The premiership was won by the Coburg Football Club for the second year in a row and the sixth time overall, after it defeated Williamstown in the 1989 VFA Grand Final by 20 points. As of 2025, it is the last time Coburg has won a senior VFA/VFL premiership.
