The 1959–61 Israel State Cup (Hebrew: גביע המדינה, Gvia HaMedina) was the 22nd season of Israel's nationwide football cup competition and the seventh after the Israeli Declaration of Independence.
The competition began on 30 January 1960, two months after the conclusion of the former competition. Further rounds, until the eighth round, were played during the remainder of the 1959–60 season. Disagreements within the IFA caused a delay of over 5 months in the competition, and the quarter and semi finals were played on December 1960.
The final was held at the Ramat Gan Stadium on 1 February 1961. Hapoel Tel Aviv, appearing in its first final since 1941, defeated Hapoel Petah Tikva 2–1, winning its 6th cup.
Sixth round
Byes: Hakoah Tel Aviv, Hapoel Herzliya, Hapoel Ramla, Shimshon Tel Aviv.
