The 2016 Cape Verdean Football Championship final was the final of the 2016 Cape Verdean Football Championships, which was the 37th edition of the Cape Verdean Football Championships and 30th with the knockout stage.[1]

In Cape Verde, the finals were televised live on TCV and listened on radio on RCV.

The final was played between clubs from the Barlavento Islands, CS Mindelense, champion of the previous national season and regional winner and Académica do Porto Novo, champion of the Santo Antão South Zone. This was the recent finals appearance that featured clubs from the island chain. The winners did not compete into the Cape Verdean Super Cup and the 2017 CAF Champions League in the following season, primarily due to its schedule, a part of it, the regional championship and cup competitions within it.

The 2014 football championship final was Mindelense's was their fourteenth and recent appearance in their 97 year history and also their fourth consecutive and Académica do Porto Novo was their second appearance in their 32 year history.
