The 1935–36 1. Liga season was the 5th season of the 1. Liga since its creation in 1931. At this time, the 1. Liga was the second-tier of the Swiss football league system.

In the run-up to this season, there were further changes to the league system. There were now 24 clubs competing in the 1st division, this being two more clubs than in the 1934/35 season and six more than in the 1933/34 season. These 24 clubs were divided into two regional groups, each with 12 teams. The teams in each group played a double round-robin to decide their league position. Two points were awarded for a win and one point was awarded for a draw. Both group winners then contested a play-off round to decide the championship and the one sole promotion slot to the top-tier Nationalliga. The two last placed team in each group were to be directly relegated to the 2. Liga (third tier).
