The 2018–19 BIBL season is the 11th edition of Balkan International Basketball League (BIBL). The competition started on 16 October 2018.

Competition format

Originally eight teams joined the competition, but Prishtina 2019 withdrew its participation in January due to the commitment in the FIBA Europe Cup.

The remaining seven teams play a round robin tournament where each team faced the others in home and away games. The top four teams qualify directly for the Final Four.
