About Belgian Cup

The Belgian Cup (French: Coupe de Belgique, Dutch: Beker van België) is Belgium’s main national knockout football competition. It was first introduced in 1908, initially involving provincial selections under the name Belgian Provinces Cup, before evolving into a competition for club teams from 1912 onward. Since 1964, the tournament has been held annually in its modern format and is organized by the Royal Belgian Football Association. Today it is also commonly known as the Croky Cup due to sponsorship naming rights.

Over the years, the competition has had several official and commercial names. Before becoming the Belgian Cup, it was referred to as the King’s Cup in its early pre–World War I period. In the modern era, sponsorship has played a major role in naming: it was called the Coca-Cola Cup (1996–2001), the Cofidis Cup (2008–2015), and since 2015 it has been known as the Croky Cup. Despite these naming changes, the tournament’s format and prestige as Belgium’s primary cup competition have remained consistent.

The Belgian Cup is a straight knockout tournament open to clubs from multiple levels of Belgian football, from professional sides to amateur teams. The winner not only earns the trophy but also qualifies for the UEFA Europa League and the Belgian Super Cup. The final is traditionally held at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels, making it one of the key annual events in Belgian football.
