The 1955–56 Beitar Tel Aviv season was the club's 23rd season since its establishment, in 1934, and 8th since the establishment of the State of Israel.

At the start of the season, the league which started during the previous season was completed, with the club finishing 5th. The new league season, with the top division being renamed Liga Leumit, began on 3 December 1955 and was completed on 3 June 1956, with the club finishing 7th.[1]

During the season, the club also competed in the State Cup, which was also carried over the summer break. The club was eliminated in the quarter-finals, after losing 0–4 to Hapoel Petah Tikva.[2]

In addition, during the break between the completion of the 1954–55 league and the beginning of the 1955–56 league, the club participated in the Netanya 25th anniversary cup, along with Maccabi Petah Tikva, Maccabi Netanya and Hapoel Ramat Gan. In the competition, which was played as a round-robin tournament, the club finished fourth.[3]
