The 2019 FAI Cup (known as the Extra.ie FAI Cup for sponsorship purposes [1] ) was the 99th edition of the annual Republic of Ireland's cup competition. [2] Forty teams participated in the competition, including all teams from the Premier Division and First Division.

The defending champions were Premier Division side Dundalk, after they defeated Cork City 2–1 in the previous final.
