The 2008 FAI Cup, known as the FAI Ford Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 88th staging of the Republic of Ireland's primary national cup competition. It featured teams from the League of Ireland Premier Division, First Division and A Championship, as well as teams from the regional leagues of the Republic of Ireland football league system.
The FAI Ford Cup officially kicked off in late March 2008, when four clubs from the Intermediate and Junior leagues battled it out in the first round for the opportunity to join 18 A Championship, Intermediate and Junior clubs in the second round. This was the second season that the competition was sponsored by Ford.
The ten winners of the second round ties were joined in the Third Round by 12 Premier Division and 10 First Division clubs.
The competition ran until late November, with the final taking place on Sunday, 23 November 2008 at the RDS.
