The 1968 VFL Golden Fleece Night Premiership was the Victorian Football League end of season cup competition played in September and October of the 1968 VFL Premiership Season. Run as a knock-out tournament, it was contested by the eight VFL teams that failed to make the 1968 VFL finals series. Games were played at the Lake Oval, Albert Park, then the home ground of South Melbourne, as it was the only ground equipped to host night games. Hawthorn won its first night series cup defeating North Melbourne in the final by 61 points.
