The Latvian Football Cup (Latvian: Latvijas kauss futbolā), also known as the LVBET Latvian Cup (Latvian: LVBET Latvijas kauss) for sponsorhip reasons, is the main knockout cup competition in Latvian football. The tournament was launched in 1937, replacing the previous knockout tournament – the Riga Football Cup.

The competition is a knockout (single elimination) tournament. From 1937 to 2008 and again since 2017, all of the games of the tournament are played within the calendar year.
