The 2011–12 Greek Football Cup is the 70th season of the Greek Football Cup. A total of 57 clubs, ten less than last edition, were accepted to enter.

The competition commenced on 9 November 2011 with the First Round and will conclude on April 2012 with the Final. Delaying the start of the tournament is due to judicial decisions after the Koriopolis scandal.

The winner of the competition qualifies for the play-off round[1] of the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League.
