The 1995–96 Welsh Cup was the 109th season of the main domestic football cup competition in Wales, the Welsh Cup. It was the first season where teams playing in the English football league system were excluded from the competition. The defending champions Wrexham were thus unable to enter, and Llansantffraid ended as the cup winners, beating Barry Town in the final.
