The 2009–10 season of Parma F.C. was Parma's 19th season in Serie A, having spent a year in Serie B, where they finished second the previous year. Parma enjoyed a successful league season, securing eighth position and narrowly missing out on a return to European competition for the first time since 2006–07.

Parma started the season strongly, but faded in the middle part of the season before a late run saw them finish in a very respectable eight position.
