The 2019 Caribbean Series (Serie del Caribe) was the 61st edition of the international competition featuring the champions of the Cuban National Series, Dominican Professional Baseball League, Mexican Pacific League, Puerto Rican Professional Baseball League, Panamanian Professional Baseball League, and Venezuelan Professional Baseball League. It took place from February 4 to 10, 2019, at Estadio Nacional de Panamá in Panama City, Panama.{{cite web | url=https://www.lmp.mx/noticia/25527 | title=Sitio Oficial de la Liga ARCO Mexicana del Pacifico | date=August 30, 2022 }} The series was originally set to be hosted in Barquisimeto, Venezuela, but for the second consecutive year had to be moved to an alternate location. This was due primarily to security concerns stemming from the 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis.{{cite news|title=CBPC reasignará sede Serie del Caribe 2019|url=http://www.seriedelcaribe.net/articulos/cbpc-reasigna-sede-serie-del-caribe-2019/|publisher=Confederación de Béisbol Profesional del Caribe|date=January 27, 2019|accessdate=January 27, 2019|language=es|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190128083304/http://www.seriedelcaribe.net/articulos/cbpc-reasigna-sede-serie-del-caribe-2019/|archive-date=January 28, 2019|url-status=dead}}
