The 1899–1900 Scottish Cup was the 27th season of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition. The Cup was won by holders Celtic when they beat Queen's Park in the final at the newly built Ibrox Park by a 4–3 scoreline to claim the trophy for a third time overall; it is the last major final to date for Queen's Park who were cup winners ten times in the 19th century.[1]
