The 2013 Categoría Primera B season was the 24th season since its founding and was officially called the 2013 Torneo Postobón for sponsorship reasons.
The season consisted of two tournaments: the 'Torneo Apertura' and the 'Torneo Finalización'.

At the end of the first eighteen rounds, the eight best-placed team will advance to the Semifinal round where teams will be sorted into groups and play a short double Round-robin tournament group stage. The winner of each group will advance to the Final round, which will consist of two legs. The winner will advance to the season final at the end of the Torneo Finalización, with its winner being promoted to the Categoría Primera A.
