The 1965–66 Greek Football Cup was the 24th edition of the Greek Football Cup.
For the second time in three editions, the Cup final was scratched: AEK Athens were awarded[1] the Cup as the HFF was late to determine a date for the match. Due to Olympiacos having to prepare for the next season's European Cup, the delay meant that Olympiacos would not be able to field a team for the final.[2]
