The 2023 Campeonato Paraense was the 111th edition of Pará's top professional football league. The 2023 edition was supposed to start on 21 January, however, the championship was paralyzed by the STJD due to a new appeal filed by Paragominas regarding the previous edition.

Paragominas' case was dismissed, and the championship started on 5 February, with its end on 26 May.

Águia de Marabá won the championship for the 1st time.

Format

Three groups with four clubs, with the teams of one group facing those of the other two. The eight best teams in the overall standings advance to the final stage.
