The 2021 season was the club's fourth straight campaign in the Eliteserien since their promotion in 2017. Bodø/Glimt entered the campaign as league champions, winning their first ever Norwegian title in 2020. The start of the season was postponed from 5 April to 8 May due to the COVID-19 pandemic, where Glimt first played their local rivals Tromsø on 9 May 2021.
On 12 December 2021, Bodø/Glimt retained their title as Eliteserien champions with a 3–0 win over Mjøndalen in the final match of the league season.[1]
