The 2018 Atlantic 10 Conference men's soccer season was the 32nd season of varsity soccer in the conference. The regular season began on August 24 and concluded on November 11, 2018. Following the regular season, the 2018 Atlantic 10 Men's Soccer Tournament was held to determine the conference champion and automatic berth into the 2018 NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Tournament.

UMass enters the season as the defending regular season and tournament champions.

VCU won the regular season championship, giving the Rams their first A-10 regular season title, and their first regular season championship overall since 2004.
