2014 Indonesia Super League winners Persib were the defending champions, as the 2015 Indonesia Super League was abandoned midway due to FIFA suspension while the 2016 Indonesia Soccer Championship A was not counted as an official league.
Bhayangkara won their first Liga 1 title with one match to spare.
The season was marred by the death of Persela's longtime goalkeeper, Choirul Huda.
