The Coupe de France is France's national knockout cup and the most inclusive competition in European football's major nations, open to clubs from the professional divisions, the regional amateur leagues, and the overseas territories including Réunion, Martinique and Tahiti. That breadth produces fixtures no other cup can, with Ligue 1 clubs travelling to amateur grounds or overseas venues, and it has generated a long record of giant-killings. All rounds are single matches, with lower-ranked clubs hosting, and the final is staged at the Stade de France. Paris Saint-Germain lead the honours list. The winner qualifies for the Europa League, and for amateur and lower-division clubs a deep run delivers both national exposure and gate receipts that can fund years of operation.
No France Cup fixtures are scheduled in the next seven days. The 2025/2026 edition ran from 14 November 2025 to 22 May 2026.
