The 2025–26 season was Livingston's first season back in the Scottish Premiership, following their promotion from the Championship at the end of the 2024–25 season. Livingston also competed in the League Cup and the Scottish Cup.

Season summary On 16 May 2025, Livingston revealed that they had been the subject of a takeover led by the great-great-grandson of American industrialist Henry Ford. Calvin Ford was subsequently announced as the club's new chairman and majority shareholder after buying out 100% of previous owner John McIlvogue's stake in the club.

On 1 February, the club announced that David Martindale would be stepping down from his role as manager and instead taking up the position of Sporting Director. His assistant, and former Livingston midfielder, Marvin Bartley was promoted in his place.
