The 1962 Norwegian Football Cup was the 57th season of the Norwegian annual knockout football tournament. The tournament was open for all members of NFF, except those from Northern Norway. Fredrikstad were the defending champions, but they were eliminated by the second-tier team Vard in the quarterfinal.
The final was played at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo on 28 October 1962, and was contested between two second-tier teams, Gjøvik-Lyn and Vard. This was Vard's first appearance in a cup final, while it was Gjøvik-Lyn's second final, having lost the 1914 final. Gjøvik-Lyn secured their first title with a 2–0 victory against Vard, and qualified for the 1963–64 European Cup Winners' Cup.
