The 2000–2001 Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final was the Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final for the 2000–2001 season. It was the culmination of the 2000–2001 Grand Prix Series. Skaters qualified for the event by accumulating points throughout the season. The events of the series were the 2000 Skate America, the 2000 Skate Canada International, the 2000 Sparkassen Cup on Ice, the 2000 Cup of Russia, the 2000 Trophée Lalique, and the 2000 NHK Trophy. The top six skaters in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies singles, pair skating, and ice dancing met at the final to crown the Grand Prix Final Champion.

The format of the event differed from other years. Skaters competed in the short program and the free skating, and then competed head to head in different free skating finals. The top two finishers at that point in the competition competed against each other in a Super Final (SF).

The 2000–2001 event was held in the Yoyogi National Gymnasium in Tokyo, Japan from February 15 through 18, 2001.
