The current Scottish Cup holders are Celtic, who overcame Rangers 1-0 in the Scottish Cup Final 2024 on May 25. 

Forward Adam Idah, then on loan from Norwich, scored the game's only goal in the closing stages of the match, in turn leading Brendan Rodgers and his players to clinch a traditional league and cup double for the 2023/24 campaign.  

The Scottish Cup competition itself is the second-longest-running football tournament in the world, second only behind England's FA Cup. 

And while the Scottish Cup is the second oldest tournament in world football, the Scottish Cup trophy itself is the oldest. Unlike the FA Cup trophy, which has been replaced more than once since its inception in November 1871, the silverware Scottish teams play for today is the same one those competed for in 1874.
