The 2016 Los Angeles Angels season was the franchise's 56th season and 51st in Anaheim (all of them at Angel Stadium). They finished in fourth place in the American League West and did not make the playoffs. This was the first season since 1996 where they did not officially have Anaheim in their moniker.

The Angels played just four extra-inning games during the season—the fewest of any team in a 162-game season—and lost all four.
