The Lebanese Challenge Cup (Arabic: كأس التحدي اللبناني) was a Lebanese football annual cup competition contested by the teams placed between 7th and 10th in the previous season of the Lebanese Premier League and the two newly promoted teams from the Lebanese Second Division.

Established in 2013, the most successful clubs in the competition are Tadamon Sour, Shabab Sahel, Racing Beirut and Bourj, all with two titles each.[1] The competition was suspended in 2023, alongside the Lebanese Elite Cup, and was replaced by the Lebanese Federation Cup as the pre-season preparatory tournament.[2]
